Christensen Shipyards produced semi-custom and fully custom motor yachts from their Vancouver, Washington facility across more than two decades of operation, building a roster of American-market superyachts that combined generous hull volumes with owner-directed interiors. Three Christensen Shipyards yachts are available for charter across the Greater Antilles, providing a carefully built American motor yacht option for guests exploring Cuba, Hispaniola, Puerto Rico and Jamaica.nnThe Christensen Shipyards approach prioritised giving each owner a genuinely personalised vessel within a proven hull platform. Their 143 and 164 foot hull forms became the most ordered in their range, providing a wide beam at the waterline that translates into interior volume significantly above what comparable European builders offered at the same length. For charter guests, this means a yacht that feels more spacious below decks than the overall length might suggest.nnWeekly rates for Christensen Shipyards charters in the Greater Antilles range from approximately 45,000 to 100,000 euros. The advance provisioning allowance adds around 30 percent. North American guests, who represent the primary charter market for American-built yachts of this type, drive peak demand during the November to April Caribbean season.nnFrom the reefs of Culebra near Puerto Rico to the whale sanctuary of Samaná Bay in the Dominican Republic, and from Jamaica’s Port Antonio to the beach anchorages of the Turks and Caicos, a Christensen Shipyards vessel provides a comfortable and capable base for a multi-island Greater Antilles itinerary.
