Moorings

The club manages its moorings and handles reservations from the office. Can Pastilla is located on the eastern side of the Bay of Palma and is a convenient spot for those who live in Palma or arrive by plane: the airport is just a few minutes away.

Dry Dock

Photos on the club’s website show the travel lift lifting a boat out of the water, which allows routine dry-dock work to be performed right at the club:

• Hull cleaning and antifouling application.
• Replacing anodes.
• Inspecting propellers, shafts, and sea inlets.
• Minor repairs before the season.

Having a dry dock at the club itself eliminates the need to transport the boat to another port for annual maintenance.

Sailing and Sports School

The club has an active school offering:

• Sailing for children and youth, with a fleet of Optimist dinghies.
• Beginner courses for adults.
• Summer activities for children: stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, and water games.
• Regattas, such as the Trobada de Creuers.

The photos show Optimists being prepared on the esplanade and groups of children rowing in the bay.

Restaurant and Social Life

The club’s restaurant and terrace, facing the sea, are a gathering place for members and visitors. The club also organizes dinners and events on the pier.

• Ask for a written estimate for each job before work begins.
• Take advantage of the dry docking to inspect the anodes, sea inlets, and propeller all at once.
• Take photos of the hull when it’s out of the water: they’ll help you compare year after year.
