Oceanco, based in Alblasserdam in the Netherlands, occupies the rarefied space at the upper end of custom motor yacht construction, typically building vessels between 60 and 90 metres to a fully bespoke brief. The yard is known for a willingness to execute technically demanding briefs, and several of the most architecturally distinctive motor yachts in the world carry Oceanco hulls. Charter one in Mustique and you board a vessel that represents the outer edge of what is possible in private yacht construction.nnOceanco works with the world’s leading naval architects and interior designers, and each project reflects a genuinely original brief. Common to Oceanco builds is exceptional structural integrity, often achieved through advanced composite and aluminium combinations that reduce displacement without compromising ocean-going capability. Interior volumes are extraordinary relative to hull dimensions, and crew sizes are matched to the complexity of the vessel.nnWeekly charter rates for Oceanco yachts available in the Mustique area range from approximately 200,000 to over 600,000 euros for the larger flagship builds. An advance provisioning allowance of 30 percent covers fuel, provisions, port dues and crew gratuity. Caribbean availability is extremely limited, with Oceanco charters in this region typically committed well over a year in advance through the leading charter brokers.nnMustique suits an Oceanco charter in character and prestige. Britannia Bay holds the largest hulls comfortably, the island’s private atmosphere reinforces the exclusivity of the charter, and the surrounding Grenadines provide the variety of scenery and anchorage appropriate to a week aboard one of the world’s most remarkable private yachts.
