TANIT

## TANIT — Pershing 37 Some yachts are built for crossings. This one is built for the day. TANIT is a Pershing, and that lineage tells you most of what you need to know before you ever step aboard: an Italian yard whose reputation rests on sportsboats that hold their line at speed and look composed doing it. At 11.45m / 37ft, launched in 2002, she is the right size for the Balearics — nimble enough to slip into the calas that larger yachts have to admire from a distance, quick enough to cover the stretch between Ibiza and Formentera before the morning breeze fills in. She takes up to nine guests for the day, with one professional crew member aboard. That ratio matters more than it sounds: it means a captain who knows which anchorage will be sheltered this afternoon, who handles the tender work and the mooring lines, and who leaves you free to do nothing at all. Below, a single cabin with a double bed offers two sleeping places, along with somewhere cool and private to change, rinse off, or step away from the sun for an hour. The day tends to write itself. A late start from the marina, a run down the coast, an anchorage chosen for the colour of the water rather than the guidebook entry. Lunch on board with the engines quiet. Swimming off the transom in the flat afternoon light, then the ride home along the coastline as it turns gold. For a family, a group of friends, or a couple who simply want the sea to themselves for a day, TANIT is a straightforward proposition executed properly — a well-built Italian sportsyacht, an experienced hand at the helm, and the Balearics laid out in front of you.
