There are yachts you buy to navigate, and yachts you buy to truly enjoy. The Menorqu\u00edn 36 Open<\/a> from Sasga Yachts clearly belongs to the second group. For the first time, the Menorca shipyard has brought its traditional construction philosophy and distinctive identity to an open-deck yacht, designed from bow to stern for leisure, swimming and those unhurried hours spent anchored off a secluded cove.<\/p>\n

This is not a scaled-down version of a classic Menorqu\u00edn. It is a completely new yacht with a different approach: less formal, more social, with life on board taking place almost entirely outdoors.<\/p>\n

A Menorqu\u00edn Designed for Outdoor Living<\/h2>\n

Sasga has been building Menorqu\u00edn yachts for decades, with classic lines, hulls rooted in Balearic tradition and handcrafted finishes. The Menorqu\u00edn 36 Open retains that DNA \u2014 the distinctive \u201cnas\u201d of the bow and the attention paid to every detail \u2014 but brings it to a more open, informal and spontaneous concept.<\/p>\n

The shipyard sums it up this way: it is the most open way to experience a Menorqu\u00edn. And that is clear in the overall concept: instead of the cabin taking centre stage, here the deck is the main focus. The hardtop provides shade over the helm station and social area, the sunpads convert into a dinette and vice versa, and the outdoor galley is designed for spending the entire day outside, not just mealtimes.<\/p>\n

Jordi Ferrer, Sales and Marketing Director at Sasga Yachts, described it as an expansion of the range towards a different way of navigating, with life on board centred around the deck and the same construction standards that define the rest of the Menorqu\u00edn range.<\/p>\n

Who Is the Menorqu\u00edn 36 Open Designed For?<\/h2>\n

This yacht has a very recognisable type of owner in mind. Someone who already knows the Balearic Islands, Ibiza or the Costa Brava, who navigates with family or friends and wants to enjoy a day at sea without the formality of a more traditional yacht.<\/p>\n

They do not need to show off size or ostentatious luxury. What matters more is being able to anchor comfortably in a cove, have lunch on board with eight people seated around the table, swim whenever they feel like it and, if the day runs longer than planned, stay overnight without giving up any of the essentials.<\/p>\n

This is the kind of owner who appreciates modern dayboats, open styling, generous sunpads and spacious swim platforms, but does not want to give up the build quality and traditional character of a true Menorqu\u00edn. The Menorqu\u00edn 36 Open is designed to strike exactly that balance: contemporary styling, classic soul.<\/p>\n

It also suits those looking for a second yacht, easier to handle than a cruising yacht and ideal for shorter outings, but with the option of extending the trip for a couple of days when the weather is right.<\/p>\n

A Deck That Changes with the Day<\/h2>\n

What is most interesting about the Menorqu\u00edn 36 Open is how the same space transforms depending on the time of day. The deck is divided into three interconnected areas, each with a clear purpose.<\/p>\n

At the stern,<\/strong> the large swim platform is protected by a stainless-steel handrail, with an integrated ladder for easy access in and out of the water. Just behind it, two almost two-metre-long cushions create a double sunpad, separated by a central walkway that keeps access to the rest of the deck clear. The headrests can be turned around to become backrests, allowing the same space to be used for sunbathing or sitting down for a meal.<\/p>\n

At the centre<\/strong> is the social heart of the yacht. The dinette features two folding tables that, when joined together, can seat up to eight people, something rarely found on a 36-foot yacht. Alongside it, the outdoor galley includes a sink, gas-powered ceramic hob, two refrigerators and enough storage space to avoid having to go down to the cabin throughout the day. The helm station allows you to navigate either seated or standing, with two seating positions and an ultra-wide display that brings all the instrumentation together in one place.<\/p>\n

At the bow,<\/strong> there is a second, more secluded and peaceful relaxation area, perfect for reading or switching off when the yacht is anchored or moored, away from the bustle of the dock.<\/p>\n

From an Afternoon of Swimming to a Night on Board<\/h2>\n

Although the Menorqu\u00edn 36 Open is designed primarily for outdoor living, its interior is far from an afterthought. A sliding door leads into the main cabin, with a 130-centimetre sofa and fixed beds. The yacht also features a second sleeping area with a double bed and a separate bathroom, considerably extending the overnight possibilities for a dayboat.<\/p>\n

This opens up a possibility that many owners particularly value: the freedom to extend the trip. You can head out for the day and, if you feel like it, spend the night in a cove without having to return to port. The woods, upholstery and hull construction maintain the shipyard's usual standards, so while the concept is more informal, the quality remains unchanged.<\/p>\n

Technical Specifications: What Lies Beneath the Design<\/h2>\n

Before deciding on a yacht, every buyer wants clear figures. These are the key specifications of the Menorqu\u00edn 36 Open:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Overall length CE:<\/strong> 11.23 m
\n\u2022 CE hull length:<\/strong> 9.07 m
\n\u2022 Maximum beam:<\/strong> 3.80 m
\n\u2022 Draft:<\/strong> 1.10 m
\n\u2022 Light displacement:<\/strong> 6,500 kg
\n\u2022 Full-load displacement:<\/strong> 8,650 kg
\n\u2022 Fuel capacity:<\/strong> 650 litres
\n\u2022 Fresh water capacity:<\/strong> 350 litres
\n\u2022 Cruising speed:<\/strong> up to 23 knots
\n\u2022 Maximum speed:<\/strong> 28 knots
\n\u2022 Engines:<\/strong> 2\u00d7270 hp or 2\u00d7320 hp<\/p>\n

With two engine options available, owners can tailor the yacht to their preferred style of navigation: more relaxed with the 270 hp option, or sportier with the 320 hp version. The 650-litre fuel capacity provides more than enough range for long days on the water without having to refuel every couple of days.<\/p>\n

Why This New Dayboat Is Arriving Now<\/h2>\n

For several years now, the Mediterranean boating market has been moving towards more open yachts, with versatile decks and less emphasis on enclosed interiors. Dayboats have become one of the fastest-growing categories, particularly in areas such as the Balearic Islands, where a typical day on the water means heading out in the morning, anchoring in a cove and returning at sunset.<\/p>\n

Sasga Yachts responds to this trend without giving up what has defined the shipyard for years: traditional Menorcan craftsmanship. The result is a yacht that can appeal both to someone looking for their first dayboat and to an owner who already has a classic Menorqu\u00edn and wants something more open for everyday life at sea.<\/p>\n

The first Menorqu\u00edn 36 Open will make its debut at the Palma International Boat Show<\/a> in 2027, although the full catalogue is already available for anyone who wants to explore every detail of the model before making a decision.<\/p>\n
