Many holiday trips tend to lack excitement due to the predictability of resorts or theme parks. Initially, these may seem like a fun option when travelling with young children, but it doesn’t take long for even kids to recognise that these fabricated experiences lack authenticity. Instead, opting for a real adventure, such as a boat charter in Majorca, can result in creating lasting memories that will be treasured for a lifetime. So why not consider taking a different approach to your next holiday and embark on a truly unforgettable journey on the beautiful island of Majorca. – Find a boat

This is why yachting has become a popular option for families seeking an adventurous and diverse vacation. The yachting industry has evolved to cater to a wide range of travelers, including those seeking a more luxurious experience and those seeking a more budget-friendly option. With a range of services available, you can choose to have a full crew attending to your every need, or opt for a more hands-on approach with just a captain or even skipper the yacht yourself on a bareboat tour. This provides a unique opportunity to disconnect from the world and immerse yourself in the beauty of the open sea.

Boat charter Mallorca

One thing you may want to “test drive" on your chartered yacht is the extent of involvement in the actual operation of the vessel that you and your family and friends wish to have. For some, having all the work done while you enjoy the pleasure of cruising along the route to the next destination is the definition of luxurious relaxation. But if you have the bug for being involved with the boat and to get more “hands on", there are different options where you can have all or some of the responsibility for the operation of the yacht falls to you.

Skippered yacht

A skippered yacht is a good middle ground if you want to learn about the work needed to operate a working vessel at sea but you don’t want to or don’t have the skills and knowledge to take her out yourself. You charter the yacht itself and a skipper whose job it is to make sure the voyage goes well and that the vessel is operated properly and safely. But that skipper does not bring a crew on board of your yacht. So by default, the crew duties will fall to you and the other passengers on the trip. This kind of boat charter can be fun for the entire party because you can learn a little about yachting but the responsibilities all stay with the skipper. In truth, because the skipper knows he is there to make your outing enjoyable, he will give your group as many chores as he feels you want to carry and make sure the rest gets done himself. One situation where this works well is when you have teenagers or young people who are eager to be crewmen on a ship but need the guidance of the skipper.

Crewed charter & bareboat charter

At the two opposing ends of the skippered boat charter experience are the crewed boat charter and the bareboat charter. If you are feeling confident and adventuresome, the bareboat charter turns the vessel completely over to you. You charter the vehicle and the necessities of the trip and you are given an orientation. But you take her out and operate the vessel depending entirely on the skills and labour of your team. It’s a good option when you are preparing to buy your first yacht to make sure you and your team are ready for boat ownership. A crewed boat charter is ideal for a completely luxurious experience because you bring on board the cook, the skipper and all the needed crewmen so you are free to kick back and just enjoy your time at sea. This is the ultimate in chartered luxury. And it’s the kind of experience you could get so used to, you might never purchase your own yacht because the crewed charter pampers you completely.
