Christensen is an American shipyard from Vancouver, Washington, building fully custom fibreglass composite motor yachts noted for smooth hull lines and a high standard of American interior detailing. The hallmarks of Christensen construction, from engineering rigour and considered proportions to spaces that live well at sea, make this builder one of the most respected in private yachting. Chartering a Christensen in Bonaire pairs that standard of quality with one of the most distinctive and rewarding cruising grounds in the Caribbean.
The Christensen yachts available for charter in the southern Caribbean carry professional crews experienced in Caribbean operations. Deck layouts prioritise outdoor living, with generous aft and sun decks, a well-proportioned main saloon and tenders suited to excursions ashore. Crew briefings cover provisioning preferences, fuel stops and the best anchorages to match the pace and interests of the group.
Weekly charter rates for Christensen yachts in the southern Caribbean typically run from around 75,000 to 250,000 euros, depending on vessel length and season. The advance provisioning allowance, usually around 30 percent of the base rate, covers fuel, food, drinks, berthing and port fees. December through April is peak season in the southern Caribbean, when settled conditions and warm temperatures attract the most demand.
Bonaire sits outside the hurricane belt with consistent trade winds and excellent visibility year-round. That reliability, combined with outstanding marine life and convenient international air connections, makes it a practical as well as beautiful base for a Christensen charter. The Yacht Collection team can help identify the right vessel for the size and itinerary of the group.
