Abeking & Rasmussen is a German shipyard with over a century of precision naval construction behind it, building custom motor and sailing superyachts to standards that have defined engineering benchmarks across the industry. Chartering an Abeking & Rasmussen yacht in the Windward Islands places guests aboard one of the world’s finest vessels in a charter region whose diversity is unmatched in the eastern Caribbean.
Abeking & Rasmussen yachts are typically large and always individually designed, with interior programmes that reflect the extended build periods and precise owner requirements that characterise the yard’s commissions. In the Windward Islands, these vessels offer both the range to cover the full chain from Dominica to Grenada and the depth of comfort to make weeks at anchor as rewarding as days under way.
Weekly charter rates for Abeking & Rasmussen yachts begin at around 250,000 euros, with the yard’s most significant builds commanding considerably more. The advance provisioning allowance adds approximately 30 percent for fuel, provisioning and gratuity. The core Windward Islands charter season runs December through April, and Abeking & Rasmussen availability during this period is very limited.
The Windward Islands reward the range of an Abeking & Rasmussen yacht. From Dominica’s volcanic landscape in the north to Grenada’s spice island character in the south, the chain offers weeks of varied anchorages within straightforward sailing distance.
