We had a few days away in Barcelona, in part to get away from the inclement February weather and in part because it's really nice place to go. We spent a lot of time just wandering the city, enjoying the food and visiting the university, but before all that this writer had to make bee line for Port Vell and the marina.
Compared to our last visit in 2017 there seemed to be a fewer super yachts, perhaps due to sanctions imposed in response to the Russia/Ukraine conflict? That said there were a few sizable cabin cruisers like the stand out one above.
Classic day trip boat above is an old working vessel still in commission and looking very handsome
Another stand out vessel, although for quite different reasons, very practical and lots of interior volume for a down town pad, which probably goes out just as often as some of the other vessels in the marina.
You know you're on a serious boat when you can look down on the tree tops from the bridge, I'm guessing the annual anti fouling isn't a trivial job to be done between tides, the absence of Med tides making it double difficult.
