Alloy Yachts built some of the most admired sailing superyachts of the early 2000s from its New Zealand yard before closing in 2012. The vessels it produced remain active on the charter market and are sought for their combination of offshore sailing performance, structural rigour, and considered interior volume. Chartering an Alloy yacht in the Bahamas trades motor yacht speed for passage under sail in reliable trade winds.
Three Alloy sailing superyachts are currently available for charter in the Bahamas and Caribbean. Lengths range from approximately 40 to 55 metres, carrying six to twelve guests in three to five cabins. Crew sizes of eight to twelve provide full sailing and hospitality service. The deck layouts emphasise sailing utility, with proper winch stations and sail management systems alongside enough aft deck space for social use at anchor.
Weekly rates for Alloy sailing yachts in the Bahamas range from around 100,000 to 300,000 euros depending on size. The advance provisioning allowance adds approximately 30 percent for fuel, provisioning, port dues, and crew gratuity. Sailing charters in the Bahamas suit the November to April window when the trade winds run consistently from the east. Availability in a fleet of three is limited, and demand for sailing superyachts at this level consistently exceeds supply.
The waters around Inagua offer exactly what a sailing superyacht requires: steady trades, clear anchorages, and passages of genuine distance. The crossing from the Turks and Caicos to Inagua is an open-water sail of real character. Once anchored, the reef dives and bonefish flats extend the programme without any need to move the yacht, suiting guests who want to sail seriously and then settle completely.
