Christensen Shipyards in Vancouver, Washington, pioneered resin-infused fibreglass construction for large motor yachts, a process that produces hulls structurally stiffer and lighter than hand-laid alternatives. That build philosophy underpins every vessel the yard has delivered, and it translates directly into fuel efficiency and performance across the open-water passages between Caribbean islands.
Three Christensen Shipyards yachts operate in the Anguilla and northern Caribbean charter market. Each reflects a distinct owner programme in interior and deck layout while sharing the same structural standards. The fleet spans the mid-range in size with five-cabin arrangements, stabilised platforms and beach clubs that make the most of the still, warm water around Anguilla protected north shore.
Charter rates in Anguilla vary with vessel length and specification. The advance provisioning allowance, typically 30 percent of the base rate, covers fuel, berthing, food, drinks and marina fees and should be factored into budget planning before signing heads of terms.
Anguilla light-traffic anchorages and clear water give a Christensen Shipyards charter room to operate effectively. Swim platforms and water toy deployment work best in settled conditions, and Road Bay, Sandy Island and Little Bay consistently deliver that. Day passages to St Martin and the northern Leewards are within easy range for a vessel designed with Caribbean distances in mind.
