UNLIMITED CAPTAIN. (Mediterranean battlefield). Yacht specialist at your disposal this 2024 Balearic season.
First of all thank you for taking a few minutes to read my profile.
My name is Jose Luis Mera and I live in Barcelona and Ibiza, Spain.
I consider myself an excellent specialist in charter yachts and private yachts too.
-The video reflects the satisfaction of a client and his family when he gives the crew an emotional speech on the last day of the charter and surprises us with gifts.
Why do I consider myself a good choice to be the Captain of your yacht that will sail through Mediterranean waters?
Because mi good experience in charter yachts with lengths of more than 30 meters, my knowledge of Ibiza and Mallorca, my experience with MYBA contract clients, living in Barcelona and Ibiza, my experience of more than 10 years in charter yachts... all this, make me I consider myself to be a good captain both for charter yachts and for private yachts.
The business of charter yachts I compare it to the scene in a play, it should never be empty, when a customer leaves another must enter without pause. The rental season will last at most 22 weeks, 154 days, and 25% will be desert days due to lack of reservations due to weather issues or low demand and high supply in the low season. Achieving an average of 110 charter days is the goal we must not give up.
The staff of a yacht in terms of dealing with the customer is not like that of a plane, restaurant or hotel: Impersonal, distant and short in time. The crew of the yachts have to create a discreet, respectful, polite and helpful connection for days and within the family circle of the customer so that they feel comfortable, safe and confident. It is a forced but necessary and accepted coexistence where the greatest peculiarity is that the customer does not know us and even less has not chosen us to spend 24 hours with them living in the plane of intimacy.
Each charter is a challenge where we must meet the expectations that are expected of us and that cover everything imaginable: the menu, the itineraries, daytime and nighttime leisure activities, restaurants, ports, anchorages, transfers, jet skis and water toys, cinema, music, cabins ... and where the manias or eccentricities although they are not the predominant note exist and we must deal with them.
The preseason is crucial to obtain the maximum result. Choose the crew and prepare the boat in the technical, material, mechanical and bureaucratic aspects, so that it is at the highest level of security and operability that customers expect. In this period prior to the season, the sailors will make contact with what will be their place of work to get to know it and acclimatize to what will come in the hard summer that await us.
