Perini Navi was founded in Viareggio in 1983 by Fabio Perini, who applied industrial engineering principles to the problem of managing large sailing yachts with small crews. The result was a proprietary electric winch and furling system that allows a crew of four to handle a 45 metre ketch safely, freeing larger crews for guest service. Perini yachts are the gold standard for cruising sailing superyachts, and the fleet in charter is one of the most sought-after in any basin.
Seven Perini Navi yachts charter in the Caribbean, placing the yard among the best-represented sailing yacht builders in the Anguilla region. Sizes range from 40 to over 60 metres, across ketch, sloop and schooner configurations. Interior design programmes on Perini yachts are typically specified to a high standard, and the combination of high-quality finish and true offshore sailing capability gives the fleet a versatility few competitors match.
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 is a natural destination for a Perini Navi charter. The island lies in the heart of the northeast trade wind corridor, and a Perini ketch can carry full sail south from Road Bay toward Montserrat, Guadeloupe or Dominica without motoring for hours. Closer in, the short passages between the northern Leeward islands reward a sailing yacht that can make headway in moderate breeze without drama.
