Sanlorenzo, founded in 1958 in Viareggio, has become one of Italy’s most admired semi-custom superyacht builders, producing motor yachts from 24 to 68 metres with a design philosophy that prioritises clean lines, open decks and a close relationship between interior and exterior living. The charter fleet spans an accessible range of sizes, from 24-metre flybridge models suited to couples or small families to 50-metre-plus displacement yachts that rival the largest bespoke builds for space and finishing quality. Eleuthera suits a Sanlorenzo well. The island’s western anchorages , Spanish Wells, Governor’s Harbour, Hatchet Bay , are exactly the kind of calm, clear-water settings the brand’s emphasis on alfresco deck living is designed for. A large aft deck and sun terrace at the bow create natural spaces for the day’s activities, from morning coffee watching the tide at Glass Window Bridge to sundowners at anchor off the pink sand beaches of Harbour Island. Charter rates for Sanlorenzo yachts in the Bahamas run from approximately 45,000 to 300,000 euros per week before expenses, spanning a wide range of vessel sizes. The advance provisioning allowance adds around 30 per cent for fuel, provisioning, berthing and crew gratuity. December through April represents peak Bahamian season. A specialist broker can match the party size to the right Sanlorenzo model and suggest an itinerary that makes the most of Eleuthera’s uncrowded anchorages.
