Sailing between Tarragona and Menorca in September is undoubtedly a fascinating experience, but it is essential to keep a close eye on the weather forecast to avoid unpleasant surprises. Bad weather can be unpredictable at this time of year, and safety must always be the priority. As for the boat, it is good to know that it performed excellently even in 34 kt winds. However, it is true that with such high wind intensity, the 49 hp engine is somewhat limited. In these conditions, sailing skills become crucial in order not to overly lengthen the crossing. Despite the intensity and duration of the crossing, which can last around 28 hours, the trip is a unique and memorable experience that deserves to be experienced at least once. The combination of a robust boat and good sailing technique can turn a challenging crossing into an unforgettable adventure. Definitely a trip that leaves a mark!

Fabulous weekend in Barcelona onboard Foster. Marc was an excellent charterer - great communications pre-charter, efficient handover and return. Boat was perfect and in great condition. Highly recommended and we'd definitely do it all again. Thanks!

We had a fabulous day out on the water for the final regatta weekend of the Americas Cup. We were positioned on the side of the course in amongst some of the race team support boats which was great! Pol was quick to respond to our request and a very clear communicator (very important given I can’t speak any Spanish). The boat was as expected (some photos show a slightly larger ‘bathing’ area at the front of the boat but the cushions must be removable as we didn’t find this) and very comfortable to handle on the water. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to rent in Barcelona - thanks again and great to meet you Pol!

La zona de navegación entre Tarragona y Menorca en septiembre es, sin duda, una experiencia fascinante, pero es esencial estar muy atento al parte meteorológico para evitar sorpresas desagradables. El mal tiempo puede ser impredecible en esta época del año, y la seguridad siempre debe ser la prioridad. En cuanto al barco, es bueno saber que se comportó excelentemente incluso con vientos de 34 kt. Sin embargo, es cierto que con una intensidad de viento tan alta, el motor de 49 hp resulta algo justo. En esas condiciones, la habilidad para navegar con vela se convierte en un aspecto crucial para no alargar excesivamente la travesía. A pesar de la intensidad y la duración de la travesía, que puede rondar las 28 horas, el viaje es una experiencia única y memorable que merece ser vivida al menos una vez. La combinación de un barco robusto y una buena técnica de navegación puede convertir una travesía desafiante en una aventura inolvidable. ¡Definitivamente, un viaje que deja huella!

You have to go snorkeling in the Medes Islands and follow the coast.
Il faut aller faire du masque-tuba aux îles Médes et longer la côte.

The northern area of the Costa Brava is definitely worth a visit. The only downside is the price of buoys in the coves or in Cadaques which is excessive.
La zone nord de la Costa Brava vaut vraiment le détour. Seul bemol le prix des bouées dans les criques ou à Cadaques qui est excessif..

We were in the area and it's a great option for renting for a day. If you want more days, it's better to head south and spend the night in another port.
Estuvimos por la zona y para alquilar un día va muy bien. SI quieres más días es mejor tirar para el sur y hacer noche en otro puerto
