FRIENDSHIP

Friendship is a 35-metre Benetti berthed in Ibiza, the largest yacht in the charter fleet and a displacement motor yacht rather than a fast planing boat. She carries up to twelve guests for the day across five cabins with five bathrooms, run by a crew of four under a professional captain.

Stabilisers are fitted, which makes a noticeable difference to comfort at anchor and on a crossing, and she cruises at a relaxed pace rather than a quick one. Air conditioning, a sound system and beach towels are standard on board.

Water toys include a SeaBob, a jet ski, a dinghy, snorkelling gear and a paddle board. Water, ice, soft drinks, beer, wine and snacks are provided.

Charters run for eight hours, starting at a time you choose, with the boat back in port before it closes. Formentera is around thirty-five minutes' sailing from Ibiza. The professional captain and insurance are included; fuel and crew tips are charged separately.
