Does anyone have any experience of these Mediterranean boats? Looks like a decent day boat with some overnight capacity. As far as I can tell a fairly new brand but pretty decent quality boats. Quite a few have been built and I can’t find any used ones for sale!
 
So, here I am having just seatrialed a girbau 28 cabin. single engine, (yanmar 320hp)day boat with basic facilities for overnighters. Manufactured by a family business (15 boats a year) in Empuriabrava, Costa Brava. 27/8 knots ability but comfy at 8/ 10 knots displacement speed which is my favoured way. Clever, simple design as far as I can see.

Deposit paid and broken a vow that I would never buy a brand new boat!
Downsizing so I can anchor in the Calas and beat the Posidonia police in Mallorca where I do my boating. Quite a contrast but exciting!
Now for a mooring in Pollensa Bay! Probably harder than buying a boat.

That looks a nice boat, very reminiscent of an Apreamare perhaps? Hope you have great fun on board.
 
Build finished and about to leave the factory…….just in time for 2023 season😀
delivery to Puerto Pollensa in next couple of weeks, ready for my arrival end of April and some local cruising in Mallorca
Can’t wait
Couple of images attached
Just to clarify it is a Girbau 28 cabin.
