Christensen Yachts is an American builder based in Newport Beach, California, producing custom fibreglass and composite motor yachts between 38 and 55 metres. The yard specialises in high-performance semi-displacement hulls capable of 18 to 22 knots, paired with interior packages drawn up by leading North American designers. Grand Bahama Island provides easy access from Florida with minimal sea states on the Bahamas Bank crossing, making it a natural arrival point for Christensen charters beginning from Palm Beach or Fort Lauderdale. Old Bahama Bay marina at West End and Freeport Harbour accommodate mid-range motor yachts with full facilities for customs clearance, fuelling and provisioning. The three Christensen yachts available in this region deliver the features associated with American custom builders: large master suites forward, cinema systems, beach clubs and crew quarters that free the entire main deck for guest use. Weekly charter rates typically sit between 90,000 and 200,000 euros, placing these yachts within an accessible bracket without compromising on specification or crew service. The advance provisioning allowance of approximately 30 percent accounts for fuel, food, berthing and drinks. Bahamas Bank conditions are generally settled from December through April, with calm sea states optimal for swimming and snorkelling directly from the swim platform. Peterson Cay National Park provides a natural reef stop close to Freeport, the Lucayan cave system adds a non-marine excursion option, and the eastern bonefishing flats near McLean Town complete a varied Grand Bahama programme for guests seeking activity between passages.
