Lürssen is a German shipyard based in Bremen with a history stretching back to 1875. Originally a builder of naval and patrol vessels, the yard pivoted to large private superyacht construction and has since established a reputation for engineering some of the most complex and ambitious superyacht commissions in the world. Lürssen yachts are typically above 60 metres and built to a technical specification that reflects decades of naval engineering discipline applied to the private market. In Montserrat, where the volcanic scenery is dramatic and the anchorages uncrowded, the scale and capability of a Lürssen yacht come into their own.
Four Lürssen yachts are available for charter in Montserrat through The Yacht Collection. These are large motor yachts, typically between 60 and 100 metres, with crew teams of twenty or more and layouts that include owner decks, multiple guest suites, beach clubs, and all the operational infrastructure of a small ship. Each is a unique commission, and the level of finish aboard reflects the yard’s position at the pinnacle of the superyacht sector.
Charter rates for Lürssen yachts near Montserrat start from approximately 300,000 euros per week and rise substantially for the largest vessels in peak Caribbean season. An advance provisioning allowance of approximately 30 percent covers fuel, food, port fees, and on-board expenses. December through April is peak season, and May and June offer the same islands at more accessible rates.
Arriving in Montserrat’s Carr’s Bay aboard a Lürssen is a statement of intent. The island rewards those with the patience to explore it properly.
