NAUTICAL SAFETY 2025: SAIL SAFE WITH IBIZA CENTRAL CHARTER

At Ibiza Central Charter, we understand that onboard safety is a priority for all sailors. That’s why we not only provide you with access to our entire fleet in Ibiza and Formentera, but we also ensure that your experience at sea is completely safe, without unforeseen circumstances or surprises.

The 2025 Summer Nautical Safety Campaign, led by the Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility in collaboration with the Directorate General of Merchant Shipping and Maritime Rescue, aims to reduce incidents at sea and promote responsible boating practices.

Under the slogan “Myths that leak. Ignore the siren calls and listen to the law of the sea”, the campaign focuses on eliminating dangerous myths that can put sailors at risk, fostering better preparedness for any eventuality.

Key Recommendations for Safe Navigation:

Below, we share some of the essential recommendations from the campaign that you can apply when renting your yacht or catamaran with Ibiza Central Charter:

1. Thorough inspection of the boat before heading out. It’s crucial that all the systems of the boat are in perfect working condition. At Ibiza Central Charter, all our boats undergo a thorough inspection and maintenance process. Each vessel is regularly checked to ensure everything functions optimally, ensuring a safe and hassle-free experience.

2. Additional equipment for worry-free navigation. For an even safer experience, make sure you have the following items on hand:

• Tools and spare parts for any unforeseen breakdowns.
• Thermal suits and first aid kit.
• Alternative means of propulsion, especially if you plan to sail in more remote areas.

All our boats are equipped with the required equipment and guarantees in accordance with current legal standards, ensuring that your journey will not only be enjoyable but also fully compliant with local and European regulations.

3. Navigating responsibly and attentively. Onboard safety greatly depends on how you navigate. Here are some key tips:

• Adjust your speed and course according to sea conditions, paying attention to the wind and waves.
• Maintain constant vigilance, both visually and with radar, to detect any obstacles or risks in the sea.
• Avoid ‘bow riding’: Do not allow passengers to ride at the bow with their legs hanging, as the boat’s movements can cause dangerous falls.

4. Environmental protection.
Our commitment to sustainability is as important as safety. Make sure to:

• Do not leave waste in the sea and dispose of it properly when you reach land.
• Avoid anchoring on protected seabeds, contributing to the preservation of the ecosystem.
