There is a legal vacuum when it comes to the regulation of party boats and which therefore prevents sanctions being taken against drunkenness in the same way that they can be in resorts.

What I object to is walking for 30 minutes or so around a path to reach a quiet beach, only to have a party catermaran pull up just off shore with loud music playing and dump a hundred people on the beach!!
Think they need to get things prioritised .... they lucky lucky men and prostitute muggers are far more damaging than anything else going on at the moment
When will it change,how will it change? If they ,the regional govt.cannot sort out the lucky,lucky men ,then yet more empty words from the politicians. Sorry Geoff,any requirement to have to make a decision is rocket science to these politicians.
Just another example of why Mallorca struggles on a daily basis to control the excesses caused by 'cheap' tourism. You get what you pay for and when you cultivate an image of unruliness and drunkenness, you attract exactly that element. Incredible that there was a 'legal vacuum when it came to the regulation of party boats'. How on earth did that happen? Why do politicians not look at the bigger picture and avoid these 'grey areas'? It's not rocket science......
Is ALL the disgusting and disgraceful debris, littering the bays in Palma Nova and Magaluf, coming from these BOOZING PARTY BOATS ???.
