Sailing in Spain
A friend has asked me this, can anyone help?
"I would be interested to find out the cost of a permit for sailing in Calpe. I will be staying with friends in Calpe over parts of this coming year.
We have a small sailboat which could be brought over from Wales but need to find out if there are any constraints on using it.
Thanks
Mark

Re: Sailing in Spain
you need to define "small sail boat" (personally, I wouldn't take a GP or an enterprise more then 40 ft from the shore...lasers and bonitas a bit further)
I learned to sail on a "puffin" polytstrene dinghy,with only a mainsail and buoyancy that not even a Russian Akula could sink

Re: Sailing in Spain
Dont think any restrictions, I assume no motor? but you do need life jackets I believe, contact Warsash the yacht association they will know.
