Amels builds from Vlissingen in the Netherlands with a semi-custom approach that combines the reassurance of proven engineering with meaningful design latitude, producing steel and aluminium motor yachts from 55 to over 80 metres that are respected throughout the charter market. Eleven Amels yachts charter in the Bahamas and Caribbean, offering a charter fleet of considerable depth and range. Rum Cay is a compelling destination for an Amels charter, with its deep-water anchorage at Port Nelson, exceptional wall dives and the surrounding passages toward San Salvador, Long Island and Cat Island forming one of the most varied one-week itineraries in the Bahamas. Amels hulls are built to commercial shipping structural norms, producing vessels that cover the Nassau-to-Rum-Cay passage in comfort and carry the self-sufficiency to operate in a location with limited provisioning infrastructure. Charter rates for Amels yachts in the Bahamas typically range from 200,000 to 600,000 euros per week. An advance provisioning allowance of approximately 30 percent applies. The season is November through May, with the Christmas period booking well in advance. From Rum Cay, Amels charters have the range and crew capacity to extend itineraries south toward Acklins Island and the Turks and Caicos, or east to San Salvador for guests who want to visit the site of Columbus’s first Bahamian landfall.
