Targa 40Fairline sports cruiser charter in Mallorca

Targa is the name Fairline gives to its sportsboats, built around open air on deck with enough room below to stay out for the whole day. Her look is classic Fairline. A dark navy hull carries a line of oval portholes, the windscreen sweeps low around the helm, and a blue canvas bimini gives shade to the helm and the seats beside it. She is 12 metres long with a 3.75 metre beam, a sturdy, sea kindly hull that stays reassuring when the breeze picks up.

Life on board centres on the cockpit. A wide sunpad sits aft, and beside it a curved bench wraps around a dining table on a teak sole, with space for lunch in the open air and towels laid out for the next swim. Forward, a second sunpad on the foredeck catches the breeze once the anchor is down and is the quietest place on board to read. Below, the saloon offers a cool retreat with a curved cream sofa around a polished wood table, and two cabins and a head give guests somewhere to change and rest between swims. With one skipper at the helm, up to 11 guests can simply enjoy the day.

She is at her best on a confident day trip. Cruising at 22 knots and capable of 28, she suits the anchorages of Palma Bay, the coves around Port Adriano and the protected waters off Sa Dragonera, and her steady hull keeps the passage comfortable if the afternoon wind builds. A tender comes with her for trips ashore to a beach or a waterside lunch, along with a paddle board and snorkelling gear for the swim stops. Every Targa charter is arranged from Mallorca, with the berth confirmed by the team once your dates are fixed. She is offered for day and sunset outings, and the team is glad to look at anything longer with you.
