Abeking and Rasmussen is a German shipyard based in Lemwerder, near Bremen, with over a century of shipbuilding history spanning sailing yachts, motor yachts and naval vessels. The yard builds in aluminium and steel, producing vessels known for structural integrity and meticulous engineering. Charter yachts from Abeking and Rasmussen available in the Anegada area number around three, typically between 40 and 70 metres, offering the precision construction and reliability that German shipbuilding consistently delivers. Anegada is the northernmost island of the British Virgin Islands and its coral atoll setting requires careful navigation through the surrounding Horseshoe Reef, one of the world’s largest barrier reef systems. An experienced crew aboard an Abeking and Rasmussen yacht provides the seamanship and anchor gear this destination demands. Weekly charter rates in the Anegada area start near 120,000 euros in low season and rise to 350,000 euros for larger vessels during peak Caribbean winter weeks. The advance provisioning allowance of roughly 30 percent covers fuel, food and harbour fees at the various BVI marinas. Beyond the reef, Anegada offers flamingos in the salt ponds, lobster dinners at The Settlement’s beach restaurants and the pristine beaches of Cow Wreck Bay and Loblolly Bay. From Anegada the wider BVI circuit extends to Virgin Gorda, Jost Van Dyke and Norman Island within a comfortable day’s passage.
