Rebelezza Sailing Yacht Hire

Rebelezza is a Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 440 based at Marina Port de Mallorca in Palma, Spain. Built in 2018 as a 2019 model, the yacht sleeps six guests in three cabins with two heads and is offered as bareboat. The week is about Mallorca and the nearby Balearic coasts, with Palma as the start and a cathedral city to come back to after the last anchorage.

The hull is 13 metres long with a 4.29 metre beam and a 2.20 metre draught. A roller genoa and a battened mainsail of about 45 square metres each keep the sail plan easy to reef. Fresh water tanks hold 330 litres. Fold down coamings turn the cockpit into a wide lounge, and the lowered side decks make it simple to walk forward without climbing. On a 300 mile hop from Marseille to Palma the yacht covered the ground in 40 hours, often holding more than 8 knots while staying light on the helm.

Below, the three cabin plan keeps a bright saloon and galley amidships. The galley has a cooker, sink, and fridge so the crew can provision in Palma and eat aboard in quiet coves. Two heads serve the cabins. Teak in the cockpit and on deck, a sprayhood, and a tender on the foredeck round out days that can run from Cabrera to the north coast or stay close to Palma Bay.

Palma is the working city of Mallorca, with the cathedral on the water, long streets of restaurants in the old town, and a well run marina with fuel, water, and short taxi rides from the airport. From the berth it is an easy first day to Cala Portals, Illetes, or the long beach at Palma Nova, then a longer hop to Soller, Pollensa, or the island of Cabrera when the forecast is kind. The Sun Odyssey 440 took European and American Sailing Yacht of the Year in 2018, and Rebelezza still shows why crews pick this Jeanneau for a Balearic week: walk around decks, a cockpit that opens into a sunbed, and a hull that stays willing when the breeze fills in.
