Westport builds its motor yachts in Puget Sound in the Pacific Northwest and has established a reputation in the American charter market for robust composite construction, comfortable long-range performance, and well-planned interior layouts. A Westport charter in the southern Bahamas around Rum Cay pairs Pacific Northwest reliability with one of the Atlantic’s most rewarding anchorage destinations.
Rum Cay is an island of unusual quiet in the southern Bahamas, positioned between Long Island and Conception Island away from the more heavily chartered Exumas chain. Its reefs are intact, its water is clear, and a small number of charter yachts reach it each season. Three Westport yachts are available for charter in the Bahamas and Caribbean, offering accommodation for eight to twelve guests with crews of three to five.
Weekly charter rates for Westport vessels in this region typically range from 30,000 to 65,000 euros depending on vessel size and season. The advance provisioning allowance of around thirty percent covers fuel, food, drinks, and marina fees, bringing the all-in weekly cost to a predictable figure. Caribbean season runs from December through April, with good availability in the shoulder months of May and June.
Westport yachts are built for range and practicality, which suits the southern Bahamas itinerary well. The passages between Rum Cay, Conception Island, and Long Island require a vessel that handles open water comfortably, and Westport hulls deliver exactly that.
