Spain has earned a reputation for being a maritime country. Each year many visitors stream in to visit the land and enjoy its sandy beaches and pristine waters. Sea lovers do so by enjoying life on board a yacht, a smaller boat or any other kind of recreational vessel.
The 7880 km of Spanish coastline and incredible weather conditions attract boat and yacht owners from around the world. Did you know that Spain is the second country in the world where more second-hand yachts are sold?

- salvage and wreck costs covered
- lending the yacht to friends
