Help needed taking a british boat to ibiza!
Discussion
I am looking for some advise on the following.
My folks have permanent residency in Ibiza. I recently own a 20ft Regal for wakeboarding and wish to take it over there on a trailer.
Having a hard time finding out the laws.
The boat will be kept there 365 days a year. Most likely in a Marina, just looking at costs now.
Other option is theres a jetty by the house (trying to find out if it's rentable, lots of small boats on it) and the option of keeping it on trailer during the winter on my folks land. Checking if it fits at the moment.
I know about The driver licence needed and laws so don't need information on that.
Does it need to be re-registared in Spain by law or can it be kept british if there full time. Roughly what is the cost of this of re-registering ....I have heard 20% of the cost of the boat! (35k boat)
Does english insurance cover the boat out there or do I need Spanish insurance? Can Spanish insurance only be acquired if the boat is Spanish registared and does the policy holder need residency to do this.
Just trying to work out what's more cost effective. Really appreciate any advise.
NoW this also sounds like a stupid question.... But the boat comes with a trailer, once in the Marina.....What do most people do with the trailer! Do marinas provide storage for this as well.
Thanks!
