Sanlorenzo, founded in Florence in 1958 and now based in La Spezia, builds custom and semi-custom motor yachts and sailing yachts ranging from approximately 24 to 70 metres. The yard’s design philosophy, developed in collaboration with leading Italian studios including Piero Lissoni, emphasises the relationship between indoor and outdoor space, with hull profiles characterised by large windows, open aft decks and an overall aesthetic closer to contemporary architecture than traditional yacht design.nnSanlorenzo’s charter fleet in the Caribbean covers both motor yacht and sailing yacht options. Motor yacht lines in the SL and SX series offer semi-custom configurations with good volume relative to length, while the larger SD and SP ranges deliver full custom layouts for guests who want something more individual. Interior design quality is consistently high, with Italian furniture brands and natural material choices that age gracefully with use.nnWeekly charter rates for Sanlorenzo yachts available near Mustique typically run from approximately 60,000 to 200,000 euros depending on vessel size and specification. An advance provisioning allowance of roughly 30 percent covers fuel, provisions, berthing and crew gratuity. The Caribbean high season from December through April applies, with demand particularly strong for the newer semi-custom builds that balance price and quality effectively.nnMustique suits a Sanlorenzo charter particularly well. The yard’s design philosophy of opening interior space to the outside is well matched to Britannia Bay’s warm evenings, and the yacht’s proportions are well calibrated for passages across the Grenadines chain to Tobago Cays, Palm Island and Canouan.
