Sanlorenzo has become one of the defining names in contemporary Italian motor yacht design, and seven of the yard output are available for charter from Saint Martin in the Leeward Islands. The La Spezia and Viareggio yard produces semi-displacement and planing hulls from twenty-eight to over fifty metres, characterised by clean exterior lines, architect-designed interiors and an attention to outdoor living space that suits Caribbean charter particularly well.
Seven Sanlorenzo yachts charter in the Leeward Islands, accommodating six to twelve guests in three to six staterooms across a range of models from the SL series through to the larger SD and 460EXP expedition yachts. Interior design partnerships with noted architects, including Piero Lissoni and Patricia Urquiola on specific commissions, give Sanlorenzo yachts an interior quality that stands apart from volume production. Main deck saloons open to aft terraces that blur the line between inside and outside.
Weekly rates for Sanlorenzo charters in Saint Martin range from approximately 60,000 to 200,000 euros depending on vessel size, with an advance provisioning allowance of around thirty percent covering fuel, food, berthing and drinks. The Leeward Islands season peaks from December through March.
Saint Martin suits Sanlorenzo yachts particularly well. The island anchorages at Marigot Bay, Grand Case and Oyster Pond are calm and picturesque, and the passage to St Barts or Anguilla takes an afternoon at moderate cruising speed, leaving guests rested rather than exhausted at each destination.
