Who this yacht suits

MIKADO is not a generic inventory pick. It is a better match when the client wants full-scale superyacht presence with formal service and serious deck space, a larger group day where deck flow matters, and a route shaped around Mallorca, Cabrera, and Port Andratx.

Local route logic

The local decision is less about distance and more about timing. Around Mediterranean and Ibiza, MIKADO should be planned with boarding point, lunch stop, swim time, and return window in one brief. In practice, treat Formentera as a weather and crossing decision, not only a photo stop.

Planning window

May to October, with July and August best handled through early routing and clear guest plans. For this yacht, confirm preferred dates, guest count, cabin needs, and cruising area together so the quote reflects the real plan. the shortlist should include one realistic alternative in case dates, berth access, or owner approval change.

Guest experience

For guests, the difference is felt in pace: where people sit, how lunch is handled, where swimming fits, and how the return feels. MIKADO should be evaluated against that rhythm, not only against specs.

Shortlist logic

MIKADO should be compared against at least one alternative if the brief is flexible. The useful difference may be cabin layout, crew style, speed, toys, berth access, or how naturally the yacht fits Mediterranean and Ibiza.

Broker caveat

Ask the broker to state the limitation as plainly as the advantage. For MIKADO, the check should cover availability, owner approval where relevant, cruising area, APA, fuel, and whether the planned route still works in real weather.
