Westport builds some of the most respected motor yachts afloat, combining rigorous Dutch, Italian or American engineering with interiors that have defined what modern crewed charter looks like. Chartering a Westport yacht in Saint Croix means arriving at each anchorage aboard a vessel with genuine provenance, one whose hull lines, stabilisation systems and crew quarters have been refined over decades of ocean use.
The Saint Croix charter fleet currently numbers around 3 Westport yachts, spanning a range of lengths and layouts suited to both couples seeking seclusion and families who need volume. Crew ratios are high, provisioning standards are precise, and the range of water toys carried reflects exactly the kind of active Caribbean programme most guests want. Each yacht is managed to the same commercial standard regardless of build year.
Weekly charter rates for a Westport yacht in the Virgin Islands begin around 50,000 euros and reach well above 200,000 euros for the largest and newest examples. The advance provisioning allowance typically runs to thirty percent of the base rate and covers fuel, food, berthing fees, and drinks. Peak demand falls between December and April, with shoulder-season availability opening up in November and May at softer prices.
Saint Croix, Saint John and Saint Thomas sit at the centre of a cruising ground that rewards a Westport yacht’s range and speed. From Christmas Cove off St James Island to the North Sound of Virgin Gorda, from the anchorage off Jost Van Dyke to the calm waters off Peter Island, this region offers a week of variety that few other charter destinations can match. Prevailing trade winds are consistent and the passages between islands are short.
