Gulf Craft has built a reputation for producing capable, well-finished motor yachts that perform reliably in tropical conditions. Charter a Gulf Craft yacht in the Dominican Republic and you will find a vessel engineered for comfort in warm, sometimes demanding Caribbean seas. The Nomad series in particular offers long-range capability, a high freeboard for safety, and a spacious main deck that makes life aboard relaxed from the moment you leave the dock.nnThe Dominican Republic Gulf Craft fleet runs to three yachts, ranging from around 55 to 65 feet. Each is designed for a crew of two or three, carries between 6 and 8 guests comfortably across double and twin cabins, and comes with a well-stocked tender for getting ashore in places where the anchor is preferable to a berth.nnWeekly rates for Gulf Craft charters in the Dominican Republic start from approximately 15,000 euros, rising toward 28,000 euros for the larger models during peak season. The advance provisioning allowance, covering fuel, fresh provisions, drinks and berthing, adds roughly 30 percent. Caribbean sailing conditions tend to be consistent from November through June, before the Atlantic hurricane season becomes a consideration.nnThe Dominican Republic is one of the Caribbean’s most varied charter destinations. Samaná Bay in the northeast draws humpback whales from January to March and offers the sheltered anchorage at Cayo Levantado. Heading west, Catalina Island near La Romana is fringed by reefs ideal for snorkelling, while Bahía de las Águilas in the southwest delivers the finest white sand in the republic, accessible only from the sea.
