Christensen is a full-custom composite superyacht builder based in Vancouver, Washington, producing motor yachts in the 40-to-75-metre range using resin-infused composite construction that results in lighter hulls with lower fuel consumption than equivalent steel builds. Each Christensen is built to an individual owner brief, creating a distinct interior and exterior identity on a structurally consistent platform. The three Christensen yachts available in Caribbean and Windward Island waters from Dominica carry that individuality into charter, offering guests access to the yard’s well-resolved composite construction and practical deck layouts in one of the Caribbean’s most distinctive natural environments. Dominica is the Nature Isle of the Caribbean, an island whose volcanic terrain, rainforest interior, and exceptional marine environment make it a more rewarding natural destination than most of its neighbours. Prince Rupert Bay on the northwest coast provides the main deep-water anchorage, sheltered and well positioned for the Indian River excursion and Portsmouth’s waterfront. Scott’s Head at the southern tip sits above a submerged volcanic crater that is consistently rated among the Caribbean’s finest dive sites. Weekly charter rates for a Christensen from Dominica run from approximately 50,000 to 110,000 euros per week, with an advance provisioning allowance of around 30 percent covering diesel, provisions, crew gratuities, and marina fees. Caribbean peak season is December through April. Martinique’s Fort-de-France Bay and Les Saintes between Dominica and Guadeloupe are the two most natural itinerary extensions north and south of the island.
