At 400,000 euros per week, the Leeward Islands megayacht charter fleet shrinks to the genuine flagships of the Caribbean season: 85 to 95 metre vessels whose presence commands attention from St Martin to Guadeloupe and whose charter experience raises every metric of what a Caribbean island-hopping holiday can achieve. These yachts define the tier.
A crew of eighteen to twenty-two manages the vessel and its complete programme across seven nights of Leeward Islands island-hopping. The helicopter is standard, opening up excursions to Guadeloupe interior at La Soufriere, to Montserrat volcanic observatory and to remote beaches on Barbuda that no vessel can approach by sea. The dive programme covers the key reef systems of the chain: Nevis drop off, Cades Reef off Antigua and the Pigeon Island Marine Reserve in Guadeloupe.
The provisioning programme at this level draws on the best of what each island produces: local lobster from Anguilla and Barbuda, fresh market produce from Gustavia and Pointe-a-Pitre, aged local rums from Marie-Galante, and provisions arriving through the established import channels through St Martin airport. The sommelier curates the wine programme from an onboard cellar of 400 or more bottles.
The advance provisioning allowance runs to 120,000 euros or above for a full week, covering helicopter operations, fuel for the 400-mile circuit, premium provisioning, marina fees and the full activities programme.
