Charter yachts in Antigua and Barbuda from 75,000 euros per week place guests aboard well-equipped motor and sailing yachts of 28 to 38 metres from the historic English Harbour and Falmouth Harbour base in the south of the island. Six yachts are available in this bracket, covering a strong selection of hull types suited to the Caribbean trade wind regime.
At 75,000 euros per week the fleet includes sloop-rigged sailing yachts built for downwind trade wind passages and fly-bridge motor yachts with generous entertaining space aft. Cabins for eight to twelve guests are finished to a high standard with ensuite facilities, and charter programmes at this vessel size can comfortably reach Barbuda, Montserrat and the northern Leewards within a seven-night itinerary.
The 75,000 euro weekly rate covers crew, insurance and standard equipment. An advance provisioning allowance of 30 percent, around 22,500 euros, covers fuel for passages, provisions, marina dues at Falmouth or Jolly Harbour and incidentals. Fuel costs in the Caribbean are somewhat lower than the Mediterranean, and the trade winds reduce engine time on passage for sailing yachts in this bracket.
The cruising ground from Antigua stretches north to the limestone hills of Barbuda and its famous Frigate Bird Sanctuary in Codrington Lagoon, east to the reefs of Nonsuch Bay and west to the volcanic peaks of Montserrat and Redonda. At 75,000 euros per week, all of this is accessible within a standard seven-night programme.
