Yacht charter in Barcelona · Sunseeker — Camargue 52 (2014)

As many have noted, the owner seems to think it's more important to decide what happens than the customer. The captain isn't allowed to sail faster by the owner, so we were lucky we weren't overtaken by a catamaran. You don't rent a 51ft motorboat for that. The water was glassy smooth, so naturally, you just want to accelerate. The clever tricks with diesel and fuel remain a common occurrence throughout Spain, but it's very annoying to be confronted with this when you're out sailing, and it's obviously far too much. Let me be clear: our captain, Alejandro, was fantastic, a very competent captain, and he took excellent care of us. Now we need to teach the owner what service is and perhaps spend some of the money he earns back on the boat. The upholstery on the inside of the benches definitely needs replacing. There were plenty of drinks, which was definitely great, and a nice ice machine on board was definitely a plus. Serving up delicious snacks and welcoming guests with a drink will be greatly appreciated, but it's better to charge a bit more. If you're spending this money on renting the boat, 100 euros more or less won't matter, but it will make your day even more unforgettable. The boat truly has all the potential for a truly luxurious experience, now it just needs the finishing touches.

We hired 8 hours of which we only sailed 3 (the weather did not help much) BUT they took us to a supposed "cove" that was a peeling area and only an industrial company was visible, when we arrived at the port they informed us that apart from the €1,279 for the boat + €200 from the skipper, we had to pay for the fuel, which was €600 more to take us to a spectacular cove THAT THEY DID NOT TAKE US MORE THAN TO A PELADERO, the inside of the boat smelled horrible and the skipper seemed to have a hangover.
