Gulf Craft is a UAE-based shipbuilder producing the Majesty superyacht series alongside a broader portfolio of recreational and commercial vessels. The Majesty range covers motor yachts from 48 to 175 feet, built in GRP using an efficient semi-production platform that delivers generous interior volumes and outdoor deck space at competitive charter rates. The three Majesty yachts available from Barbados are typically in the 48-to-100-foot range, offering practical, well-equipped motor yacht charter options for the Caribbean season. Gulf Craft yachts are designed to be operated efficiently by a small professional crew, with layouts that prioritise social spaces for charter parties of six to twelve guests. The production platform approach means the guest experience is consistent and predictable, making them a reliable option for families or groups chartering for the first time in the Caribbean. Barbados’s west coast provides a calm base with good provisioning access in Bridgetown, and the island’s position at the eastern edge of the Caribbean arc makes it a natural starting point for the Grenadines passage. Weekly charter rates for a Gulf Craft Majesty from Barbados typically run from 20,000 to 55,000 euros per week depending on size, with an advance provisioning allowance of around 30 percent covering fuel, provisions, crew gratuities, and berthing fees. Peak Caribbean season is December through April. The passage from Barbados to Bequia in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines takes six to eight hours at comfortable cruising speed, with Mustique and the Tobago Cays completing a straightforward five-day circuit from the island.
