Christensen is a Washington State shipyard that has built custom fiberglass motor yachts for the charter market for over forty years, earning a reputation for structural quality and practical design. A Christensen charter in the Windward Islands places guests aboard a proven and well-maintained vessel in one of the Caribbean’s most varied and rewarding cruising regions.
Christensen yachts in the Windward Islands fleet are typically in the 35 to 55 metre range, designed with the charter experience as the primary brief. Deck layouts make outdoor dining and lounging the default mode; interior social areas are spacious and durable; and the engineering systems are specified for extended Caribbean deployment without disruption. Crews are typically experienced hands who know the Windward Islands anchorages intimately.
Weekly charter rates for Christensen yachts in the Windward Islands range from approximately 70,000 to 140,000 euros. The advance provisioning allowance adds around 30 percent. December through April is the core Caribbean season; the Windward Islands’s trade wind sailing and varied island character make this region consistently popular with charter guests combining motor cruising with beach stops.
The Windward Islands reward a Christensen charter. The inter-island passages are manageable in length, the anchorages are varied in character, and the natural environment is genuinely outstanding from Dominica’s rainforest coast to Grenada’s spice-scented hillsides.
