Delta Marine is a full-custom superyacht builder based in Seattle, Washington, producing aluminium and composite motor yachts characterised by long waterlines, efficient displacement hull forms, and a construction philosophy rooted in Pacific Northwest offshore marine experience. The yard builds in the 30-to-70-metre range to individual commission, with each vessel reflecting the owner’s specific brief in both interior and exterior detail. The three Delta Marine yachts available from Dominica offer a charter experience built around practical offshore capability, with hull forms and systems suited to the kind of extended island passage that Dominica’s central Caribbean position enables. Dominica is the Nature Isle of the Caribbean, a volcanic island with ancient rainforest, hot springs, and a marine environment that includes sperm whale feeding grounds, river canyons accessible by tender, and the volcanic crater dive site at Scott’s Head. Prince Rupert Bay on the northwest coast is the primary superyacht anchorage, sheltered and close to Portsmouth’s waterfront. Roseau, the capital on the southwest coast, provides an alternative base with direct access to the island’s hot spring baths and forest trails. Weekly charter rates for a Delta Marine from Dominica run from approximately 45,000 to 95,000 euros per week, with an advance provisioning allowance of around 30 percent covering diesel, provisions, crew gratuities, and marina fees. Caribbean peak season is December through April. Martinique’s Fort-de-France Bay is two hours south, and Guadeloupe’s Les Saintes are a similar distance north, giving Dominica a well-positioned central staging point.
