Abeking & Rasmussen is one of Germany’s most respected shipyards, with a history stretching back over a century. The yard builds both sailing and motor yachts to the highest technical and engineering standards, producing vessels known for their precise handling, excellent sea-keeping, and understated quality. In Saba, a tiny volcanic island rising dramatically from the Caribbean Sea without a single sandy beach, the engineering excellence and sea-keeping capability of an Abeking & Rasmussen yacht are genuine assets from the moment you arrive.
Three Abeking & Rasmussen yachts are available for charter in Saba through The Yacht Collection. These are substantial vessels in the 40 to 70 metre range, typically offering six to ten guest suites, experienced professional crews, and comprehensive watertoy packages suited to the world-class diving waters of the Saba Marine Park. The build quality across the fleet is consistently high, reflecting the yard’s century of maritime engineering experience.
Weekly charter rates for Abeking & Rasmussen yachts visiting Saba typically range from around 95,000 to well over 200,000 euros per week, with an advance provisioning allowance of approximately 30 percent covering fuel, food, marina fees, and beverages. Caribbean high season is December through April, and May and early June offer similar conditions at softer weekly rates.
Saba’s lack of crowds, extraordinary diving, and dramatic volcanic scenery make it an unusual and deeply rewarding choice for guests who want a Caribbean charter that feels genuinely different.
