Delta Marine, the Seattle-based yard building fibreglass composite motor yachts for long-range offshore use, produces vessels designed to handle serious passage-making while maintaining the comfort levels charter guests expect. Three Delta Marine yachts operate in Dominican Republic waters through The Yacht Collection, each a well-equipped example of the yard’s offshore cruising range.
The Dominican Republic rewards Delta Marine’s range and offshore capability. The passages along the eastern coast from Cap Cana toward the Samana Peninsula involve genuine open-water sailing, and the hull forms on Delta Marine’s composite range handle these conditions reliably. The excellent marina facilities at Cap Cana and Casa de Campo in La Romana support provisioning and turnaround for the full week’s charter.
Charter rates for Delta Marine yachts in the Dominican Republic range from approximately 40,000 to 100,000 euros per week. The advance provisioning allowance runs to around 30 percent of the base rate. December through April is peak Caribbean season. Delta Marine represents a solid and dependable option in the Dominican Republic fleet for groups of eight to twelve seeking quality construction at a practical price point.
A Delta Marine itinerary in the Dominican Republic typically starts at Cap Cana or Casa de Campo before heading southeast to Saona Island for snorkelling on the northern sandbanks. The northward passage toward Samana Bay delivers the most ecologically distinctive destination in the Dominican Republic: the Los Haitises National Park, accessible only by tender, and the Bay of Samana, one of the Atlantic’s most reliable humpback whale calving areas between January and March.
