offshore cruising powerboat

[frankmac3]

Hi All
This is my first post on this forum, I am reading it since months and comments and opinions are very interesting and smart

I am the proud owner of a cap camarat  8.5 with twin yam 200 cv 2016,I use to do coastal cruising close to my homeport in Barcelona-Spain, 30/50 milles for a weeked is fine, the boat performs very well.
This summer I am planing a offshore trip to Maiorca, this is about 120 miles offshore from the peninsula to the island. The boat is full equiped and certified to do the cruising.  I would appreciate to have some info and suggestions from other people that did a similar trip to this one with a boat of this size like NC 895, Leader 9 (same hull as mine) or others ¿. Here in the Med the cap camarat is very popular but I am not sure in the us or Canada.
Thanks for your comments or suggestions

Hi Frank, Welcome to the forum.  I am glad that you have come in from the dark at last.  I am sure you will find the forum even more interesting as a member and able to post your experience as well as questions.

As a lake sailor, I can’t contribute much to your ocean crossing, but I am sure there will be a few people glad to share their experience.  It sounds like a great adventure.  I hope you will tell us about it.
