Compass Cay is among the most recognisable anchorages in the Exumas, a private island where nurse sharks gather at the marina dock, tidal pools lead to clear reef snorkelling, and the Exuma Land and Sea Park provides 40 miles of protected water immediately north. Feadship is the Dutch cooperative of shipyards producing the most consistently prestigious private motor yachts built, operating through the De Voogt Naval Architects office and building exclusively to individual commission from 50 to over 100 metres.
Feadship yachts available in the Bahamas represent some of the most exceptional charter vessels in the Caribbean. Individual commissions mean no two yachts are identical: interiors range from minimalist Dutch design to traditional mahogany-panelled saloons, and exterior profiles are always original. Guest cabins range from six to eleven across the fleet, with crews of fourteen to twenty on the largest examples.
Weekly charter rates for Feadship yachts at Compass Cay run from 120,000 to 460,000 euros per week, reflecting both the build quality and the exceptional crew standards these yachts carry. The advance provisioning allowance adds approximately 30 percent. The Bahamas is VAT-exempt for charter.
From Compass Cay, Feadship charter guests typically work the standard Exumas circuit in style. The Land and Sea Park north of the cay covers 174 square miles of protected water, with mooring fields at Warderick Wells and the tidal creek exploration at Shroud Cay accessible in a morning passage. South, Big Major Spot, Staniel Cay and Black Point Settlement on Great Guana Cay complete a circuit that few bodies of water anywhere can match for protected island cruising.
