Haul out needed in the Balearics

[CHKIWI]

Hi , We need to haul out somewhere in the Balearics to do a keel hull connection inspection as we have touched a rock. Nothing too serious but want to have it inspected. Can someone suggest where the best place would be to get this done that offers good reliable tradesmen at a fair price. We are just leaving Sardinia for Manorca so will be out of internet contact for the next couple of days. Look forward to any information
cheers

I suggest you go elsewhere as an old saying springs to mind "it will cost an arm and a leg"

As Rivonia says, bypass the islands and head for the mainland. I'd go to Sant Carles de la Rapita: the yard there is one of the best I've come across and they have folks who will be able to do you inspection and any remedial work. I can think of no where on the islands that will not charge an arm and a leg.

If you're going to Menorca anyway, enquire in Addaia. People speak highly of the service.

+1, the best yard that we've ever hauled out in.

Bonaire in Mallorca was quite economic some years ago, about 2008 my last info. We hauled out at Boatyard Palma, the home of the superyacht, at quite reasonable rates in 2005 but no idea since.
