Alloy Yachts was a New Zealand shipyard that built a strong reputation for aluminium sailing superyachts before closing in 2015, which means every Alloy charter today is a pre-owned vessel carrying the character and performance refinement that comes from a decade or more of expert management and maintenance. The charter fleet of Alloy yachts available in the US Virgin Islands numbers 3 vessels, each professionally crewed and maintained to a high standard. Charter weeks run Saturday to Saturday from Christiansted, with itineraries tailored to guest preferences and pace. Morning anchorages give way to afternoon passages with the trade winds, and evenings at settled bays with dinner on deck under a Caribbean sky. Base rates start from 75,000 euros per week, with an advance provisioning allowance of approximately 30 percent covering fuel, food, drinks, and berthing. High season runs December through April, and availability among the most sought-after Alloy yachts tightens well in advance. Saint Croix is the largest of the US Virgin Islands, set 40 miles south of Saint Thomas and offering a quieter pace than the busier charter hubs to the north. Christiansted on the north coast and Frederiksted on the west provide provisioning and dining, while Buck Island and the offshore reef systems are among the finest snorkelling grounds in the Caribbean.
