Due to an overwhelming demand from companies wishing to showcase their yachts, the inaugural Palma Superyacht Brokerage & Charter Show has been forced to increase its area. To take place within the Palma Boat Show from May 1 to 5, the event now provides more than 60 moorings available to display yachts for both sale as well as charter from 24m in length.
“We were surprised by the demand from brokers that wanted to exhibit their yachts at the show. However this really just enforces our conviction that there is definitely a market for this show in Palma”, commented Marc Händle, vice president of the newly formed Balearic Yacht Brokers Association, (BYBA) who is organizing the event.
An impressive range of yachts will be on view. Confirmed is the 44m sailing yacht Canica, built by Baltic Yachts with a Judel/Vrolijk design pedigree. This fast performance sailing yacht, constructed using the best lightweight materials, reaches speeds of over 20 knots and has an interior design by renowned John Munford.
Also confirmed is the 36.5m motor yacht Gin Tonic which offers accommodation for 12 guests and a large exterior area. Her spacious al fresco dining areas also provide plenty of room for guests to enjoy the spectacular surroundings at sea.
To compliment the show there will be a large tent that will house a champagne bar, a chill out area as well as a bar where visitors can relax and enjoy a gin and tonic of a different kind. Each evening will see live music played around sunset to round off the perfect day.
