VSY, the Venice-based Venice Shipyard, produces large custom motor yachts with an emphasis on innovative naval architecture and understated Italian refinement. Chartering a VSY yacht in Martinique offers access to a distinctive build ethos that prioritises engineering originality alongside considerable guest comfort.
VSY yachts in the Caribbean charter market are typically in the 40 to 70 metre range, with hull forms and structural systems that reflect the shipyard’s willingness to pursue technical solutions rather than follow established production paths. Interiors are developed in close collaboration with owners and designers, resulting in yachts that each carry a clear individual character rather than a house style.
Weekly charter rates for VSY yachts begin at around 150,000 euros, varying with size and specification. The advance provisioning allowance of approximately 30 percent covers fuel, provisioning, marina fees and crew gratuity. The core Caribbean season runs December through April, and VSY availability in the Windward Islands during this period is sought after.
Martinique suits a VSY charter well. The island’s position at the centre of the Windward chain allows the itinerary to extend in multiple directions without committing to a single route, and the infrastructure at Le Marin marina supports larger vessels comfortably.
