Lurssen is a German shipyard based in Bremen with a history stretching back to 1875 and a modern reputation as the builder of some of the most significant superyachts ever launched, including several vessels above 100 metres in length. The yard combines extraordinary structural engineering capability with a willingness to realise almost any owner vision, producing steel motor yachts of both standard and entirely unique configuration. With four Lurssen charter yachts in the Bahamas, the fleet is exclusive but represents a genuine opportunity to charter at the very top of the market in one of the most beautiful island groups in the Atlantic. Lurssen yachts in the Bahamas tend to be large, fully crewed, and equipped with the kind of amenities and technical specification that the owner installed during the build process. Beach clubs, cinemas, pools, gyms, and helipads appear across the range, and the crew of twenty or more on the largest vessels ensures guest experience is managed at an exceptional level of care and precision. Weekly charter rates for Lurssen yachts in the Bahamas range from approximately 200,000 to 800,000 euros or more depending on vessel size. The advance provisioning allowance adds 30 percent for fuel, provisions, berthing, and drinks. These are among the most sought-after charter yachts in the world and availability is very limited. Booking twelve or more months ahead is often necessary. Nassau accommodates Lurssen vessels in the main harbour while provisioning. From there a Bahamas itinerary of this calibre works the full chain: Exumas, Eleuthera, the Abacos, and the Berry Islands, covering more ground in a week than any smaller vessel can manage.
