Eleuthera runs 180 kilometres through the central Bahamas, narrow and dramatic, with the Atlantic on one side and the Bahamas Bank on the other. Harbour Island at the northern end is one of the finest small-island experiences in the Caribbean; the Glass Window Bridge marks the island narrowest crossing point; and the west coast offers a series of protected anchorages between Nassau and the southern tip. Amels is a Dutch yard in Vlissingen producing the AMELS Limited Editions range in 55, 60, 72 and 83-metre series, building to a defined specification that delivers consistent quality across the fleet.
Amels yachts in the charter fleet typically run 55 to 72 metres, with five to seven guest cabins, crews of twelve to fourteen, and the Dutch engineering tradition applied to beach clubs, toy garages and stabiliser systems suited to open-water passages. These are vessels designed for extended deployment in destinations including both the Mediterranean and Caribbean.
Weekly rates for Amels charters at Eleuthera run from 250,000 to 725,000 euros per week, with an advance provisioning allowance of approximately 30 percent. The Bahamas is VAT-exempt for charter. Amels yachts are consistently well-maintained through the yard service network.
Harbour Island off the northern tip of Eleuthera, reached by water taxi from the Government Dock, has a pink sand beach stretching three miles and the colonial village of Dunmore Town. Hatchet Bay on the west coast provides a fully enclosed harbour and fuel point. Governor Harbour is the main provisioning town. Current Cut, the narrow tidal pass between Eleuthera and Current Island, runs fast at peak tide and is navigable at slack water. The Glass Window Bridge at the island narrowest point offers a view of both the Atlantic and the Bahamas Bank simultaneously.
