Perini Navi builds sailing yachts and motor vessels at the larger end of the market, with an emphasis on structural integrity and seaworthiness that makes the yard’s output well suited to serious passage-making. Seven Perini Navi yachts are available for charter in Cuba through The Yacht Collection, spanning the yard’s sailing and motor ranges and offering guests a choice between the particular pleasures of sailing in Caribbean trade winds and the convenience of power.
The sailing yachts in the Perini Navi fleet are particularly compelling in Cuba. The northeast trade wind is consistent and well-established between November and April, providing the kind of reaching conditions that showcase the performance of large sailing yachts. Cuba’s 1,200-kilometre length means there is genuine passage-making potential along either coast, with varied anchorages and destinations throughout.
Charter rates for Perini Navi yachts in Cuba range from approximately 60,000 to 250,000 euros per week depending on size and specification. The advance provisioning allowance runs to around 30 percent of the base rate. Cuba’s peak season is December through April. Early enquiry is recommended for the most sought-after sailing yachts in the fleet, which are often booked well in advance for the Caribbean season.
A Perini Navi sailing itinerary in Cuba typically begins in Havana before heading west along the northern coast toward Cabo San Antonio, picking up the trade wind for a broad reach south and east toward the Jardines de la Reina. The southern coast’s protected channels and cay anchorages provide quiet overnight stops and excellent diving on the return passage toward Cienfuegos and Trinidad.
