Boat chartering in Mallorca.
Steve,
Most Charter companies would be able to advise you on the actual requirements but I guess your best bet would be to do RYA Day Skipper, there are two types Tidal and Non-Tidal. Most UK based companies do the the Tidal version and those based in the Med do the non-Tidal. I hear that the non-tidal is not as highly regarded when chartering. The course is in 2 parts a shorebased exam and a 3-4 day practical. See http://www.rya.org.uk/ .. They have a list a companies which are approved to do the training. Hope this is useful. Mark "SNM" wrote in message ... Hi Folks I'd like to charter a smallish cruiser (four to six birth) around Mallorca for about a week. I've had a little bit of experience with small speedboats, river boats, wave runners and that sort of thing but never a cruiser on the sea. I realise that licences / permits are required for this sort of thing and that some training is a must. I'd like to hear from anyone with experience on this matter. Can I take a course in the UK and obtain a permit / licecnce before hand that would be valid in the Balearics? What are the typical costs for a cruiser for about a week? Know any good charter companies? Sincerely, Steve |
