Ocean Alexander, the Pacific Northwest builder of luxury fibreglass motor yachts, has established itself as a respected name in the semi-custom charter market through practical American design and the warm-water durability of fibreglass composite construction. In St Lucia, an Ocean Alexander charter brings Pacific Northwest build quality to the leeward coast anchorages of one of the most scenically extraordinary island destinations in the eastern Caribbean.
Ocean Alexander yachts in the active charter fleet run from approximately 20 to 40 metres in fibreglass, with a design vocabulary that favours enclosed pilothouse areas, generous interior volume and practical beach clubs suited to Caribbean warm-water use. The construction method gives a smooth exterior finish and low maintenance demand in sustained tropical charter use. Deck layouts are configured for family groups and social entertaining at anchor.
Weekly charter rates for an Ocean Alexander in St Lucia run from approximately 30,000 to 90,000 euros. The advance provisioning allowance of around 30 percent covers fuel for the leeward coast circuit, anchorage or Rodney Bay Marina fees, provisions from the island and crew gratuities. Peak Caribbean season runs from December through April.
St Lucia suits an Ocean Alexander charter well. The enclosed pilothouse decks that characterise the range provide shade and comfort during the passages between anchorages, and the practical interior volume supports family groups for a full week at anchor on the leeward coast.
