Christensen is an American shipyard based in Vancouver, Washington, with a tradition of building large composite motor yachts to a high aesthetic and engineering standard. The yard’s vessels are characterised by traditional flowing lines, generous beam, and an emphasis on interior volume that suits extended charter use. In Saba, an island celebrated for its diving and dramatic volcanic scenery rather than sandy beaches, the range and self-sufficiency of a Christensen motor yacht make it a practical and comfortable choice for guests who want to explore beyond the conventional charter circuit.
Three Christensen yachts are available for charter in Saba through The Yacht Collection. Lengths typically range from 40 to 55 metres, with layouts offering four to six guest suites, formal dining saloons, and outdoor living decks suited to the Caribbean climate. Composite construction keeps weight down without sacrificing structural integrity, and the vessels carry well-equipped watertoy packages for guests who want to make full use of the clear waters of the Saba Marine Park.
Weekly charter rates for Christensen yachts near Saba range from approximately 70,000 to 130,000 euros per week. An advance provisioning allowance of approximately 30 percent covers fuel, food, beverages, and port fees. Caribbean high season runs December through April. May and June offer the same itineraries at softer rates, with trade winds reliable and Saba’s anchorages as uncrowded as they always are.
Saba is for guests who measure a charter by the quality of what they experience rather than the number of bars and restaurants they visit. A Christensen yacht suits that approach well.
