Oceanco builds large custom motor yachts from its Alblasserdam yard in the Netherlands, with a production focus on vessels above 70 metres that represent some of the most technically ambitious superyachts in the world. Their projects regularly attract the leading naval architects and interior designers of the current era, and the engineering is executed to a specification that reflects decades of Dutch shipbuilding expertise.
Six Oceanco yachts cruise in or near Turks and Caicos during the winter charter season. They are large vessels by any standard, typically 70 to 100 metres, and each carries a level of interior and exterior customisation that reflects the ambition of their owners. Crew complements are typically 18 to 25, and the service infrastructure matches the scale of the yacht.
Charter rates for Oceanco yachts in Turks and Caicos start at around 250,000 euros per week for the smaller examples and can significantly exceed that for the largest and most recent builds during peak season. An advance provisioning allowance of approximately 30 percent covers fuel, provisions and the full range of operating costs at this scale. Peak season applies mid-December through late March.
Turks and Caicos provides anchorages large enough to accommodate Oceanco scale comfortably. Grace Bay and the Caicos Bank have the depth profiles and swinging room that large displacement vessels require, and the passages to the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and the Bahamas are all manageable from this base.
