MCY66

Onboard the MCY66

At 20 metres with three cabins, the MCY66 sits in the size range where a day charter and a short overnight both make sense without feeling like a compromise. The three-cabin layout gives a genuine berth-per-couple arrangement for up to 12 guests during the day, or a smaller group settling in for a night at anchor — a distinction that matters once you move past pure day-boats into yachts built to actually sleep aboard.

From Port Olímpic, the MCY66's dimensions suit the run down to Sitges well: enough beam and cabin space to keep twelve guests comfortable through a full day out and back, without the fuel and provisioning scale of a larger crewed yacht. It's also a reasonable size for a Barcelona bay outing in the afternoon Tramontane breeze of summer, or a quieter October crossing when the marina traffic thins out and the anchorage off Sitges holds better shelter than the open roadstead in front of the city.

This is a fit for groups who want the flexibility of overnight cabins but don't need — or want to pay for — the scale of a 40-metre-plus fleet entry. Families splitting a swim day from a beach lunch, or a small group planning a Sitges run with the option to stay out later than a pure day-boat allows, get a yacht sized to match the trip rather than sized to impress. As with any charter on this coast, plan the harbour departure and return around Barcelona's commercial and ferry traffic, and confirm the specific day-charter or overnight format with the broker before booking.
