Sanlorenzo, the La Spezia and Viareggio yard that has become synonymous with contemporary Italian motor yacht design, delivers seven charter yachts to the Sint Eustatius region of the Caribbean Leeward Islands. The yard SL, SD and 460EXP series cover a range of models from twenty-eight to fifty metres, with a design philosophy that prioritises outdoor living space and interior-exterior integration above all other considerations.
For Sint Eustatius, Sanlorenzo outdoor-focused design is directly relevant. The island rewards guests who spend time on deck: the passage views of the Quill volcano from the aft terrace, the snorkelling conditions at Jenkins Bay that can be assessed from the swim platform, and the panorama of the Leeward Islands chain from the flybridge on a clear morning are experiences best appreciated from the open spaces these yachts provide.
Seven Sanlorenzo charter yachts operate in the Sint Eustatius region, accommodating six to twelve guests in three to six staterooms. Weekly rates range from approximately 60,000 to 200,000 euros depending on model, with advance provisioning allowances of thirty percent. The Leeward Islands season runs November through April.
From Sint Eustatius, the Sanlorenzo fleet covers Saba in under an hour, St Kitts in ninety minutes and Sint Maarten in a comfortable half-day passage north. The island sits at the centre of a week-long itinerary that balances the quiet of the Golden Rock with the more animated destinations of the northern Leewards circuit.
