Overmarine Group builds the Mangusta range of high-speed open and semi-displacement motor yachts from its facility in Viareggio, Italy. The brand is associated with a specific aesthetic: dramatic styling, high-gloss finishes, deeply raked bows and cockpit layouts that prioritise socialising over seclusion. Mangusta yachts are the yachts people notice first in any anchorage, and that visibility is part of what a significant number of charter guests specifically want.
Three Overmarine Mangusta yachts operate in the Anguilla and Caribbean charter market. The fleet covers the 60 to 80 metre range within the Oceano and Mangusta Grand Sport series, where the yard has added interior volume while retaining the performance profile and exterior drama of the earlier open designs. These are yachts for guests who want speed between destinations and style at anchor in equal measure.
Charter rates in Anguilla reflect vessel size and seasonal demand. The advance provisioning allowance, typically 30 percent of the base rate, covers fuel, berthing, food and drinks and should be included in any budget planning before heads of terms are agreed.
Anguilla rewards a Mangusta charter with the clear water and open anchorage conditions that show off the hull profile to best effect, and the passage to St Martin is short enough to complete the journey before lunch. The island relative quiet also provides a contrast to Gustavia in St Barths or Marigot in St Martin, two ports that Mangusta yachts frequent on Caribbean programmes and which are within a half-day passage from Anguilla.
