Amels is a Dutch shipyard building semi-custom motor superyachts from 55 to 80 metres through its Limited Editions range, a model that delivers consistent quality at the 60 to 80 metre scale. The eleven Amels charter yachts available in Cayman Islands represent a significant concentration of this yard in a single charter region, reflecting the popularity of the Caymans as a winter superyacht destination and the depth of the Amels fleet in Caribbean waters.
The Cayman Islands deliver a charter experience well suited to superyachts at the 60 to 80 metre scale. Grand Cayman North Sound provides sheltered anchorage in a protected lagoon, and the surrounding shallow waters allow water sports and swimming in exceptionally clear water close to the vessel. Seven Mile Beach provides one of the Caribbean finest natural backdrops from anchor, and Stingray City in the North Sound is a short tender ride from where vessels of this size typically anchor.
Amels charter rates from Cayman Islands range from approximately 200,000 to 400,000 euros per week. An advance provisioning allowance of around 30 percent covers fuel, food, marina fees and provisions. The Caribbean charter season runs from November through April, with January and February typically the most committed weeks for superyachts of this scale.
Most Amels charters in the Caymans run for two weeks, with captains combining Grand Cayman with day passages to Little Cayman and Cayman Brac, or extending the itinerary to Jamaica and Cuba for guests seeking a regional programme.
