Feadship is the most coveted name in custom superyacht building, a Dutch collective producing fully bespoke vessels of exceptional quality since 1949. Each Feadship is built to a specific owner’s brief, making the charter fleet unusually diverse , from 30-metre motor yachts with classic lines to flagship vessels exceeding 80 metres. What they share is a standard of build, engineering and interior finishing that is difficult to match anywhere in the industry. Eleuthera provides one of the Bahamas’ most private and unspoiled settings for a Feadship charter. The island’s western side is lined with sheltered anchorages , Spanish Wells, Governor’s Harbour, Hatchet Bay , while the Atlantic coast carries open-ocean swell and miles of deserted beach. A Feadship of any size handles the inter-island passages between Nassau, Eleuthera and the Exumas without effort, and its shallow-draft tenders allow exploration of the shallowest flats. Charter rates for Feadship yachts range widely, from 120,000 euros per week on the smaller end of the fleet to 500,000 euros or more for flagship vessels during peak Caribbean season. The advance provisioning allowance of approximately 30 per cent covers fuel, food, berthing and crew gratuity, and the crew-to-guest ratio on a Feadship is consistently high. December through April represents peak season across the Bahamas. A specialist broker can identify the right vessel from the available Feadship fleet and build an itinerary that makes the most of Eleuthera’s unspoiled character.
