Balancal greets the Queen Elizabeth on her maiden voyage
On 21 October 2010 Palheiro Estate's motor Yacht ‘Balancal’, and a group of owners and guests from Palheiro Village sailed out of Funchal's marina in the early hours of the morning to greet the Queen Elizabeth on her maiden voyage and first ever visit to Madeira. The weather was perfect, with very mild temperatures and a calm sea.
The Balancal guests had the thrilling experience of seeing two ships arriving in the harbour; the Queen Elizabeth and the Ventura.
Breakfast was enjoyed whilst idling next to the QE who was by then alongside, and the Balancal toasted her with champagne!
All of this in the dark of the early morning, with the sky only gradually becoming lighter from 7.30am onwards.
An unforgettable experience!
