Puerto de Pollensa, Mallorca

FRIDAY 13 - SUNDAY 14 SEPTEMBER

The bad weather started about 6 a.m. with thunder, lightening, wind and heavy rain and continued most of the day so we stayed on the buoy. On Saturday we went to get diesel and the Marinero said we could leave the boat for half an hour to change our gas bottle. We chatted to the owner of a 34 ft ketch rigged Colvic Countess called Mandurah and he told us the Port Authority berths are quite cheap, so we decided to stay for a couple of nights as the forecast was for a Force 7 by the evening. The Port Authority berths are much cheaper than the Marinas but still reasonably expensive in high season. However winter prices start from Monday 15th September which will be about 12 euros for our boat.

Port Authority Berth: 66.76 euros (2 nights) including water & electricity. Free showers but cold.
