Christensen Shipyards in Washington State built a reputation for superyacht composite construction that gave charter guests noticeably quieter, faster hulls than contemporary steel builds of similar size. The yard’s resin-infused method produces light displacement motor yachts with fuel efficiency and performance that remain competitive years after launch. Charter guests seeking a Christensen in Saint Kitts and Nevis will find a destination that rewards the kind of active, curious itinerary the yard’s efficient hulls make easy.
The two-island circuit is uncomplicated and satisfying. Saint Kitts offers a volcanic interior, sugar-plantation heritage, and Brimstone Hill Fortress commanding views across the northern Leewards. Nevis, through The Narrows, holds Pinneys Beach, the plantation hotel belt in the hills, and the cone of Nevis Peak rising clearly above the shoreline anchorage. Christensen Shipyards charter rates in the Caribbean run from 75,000 to 200,000 euros per week. The advance provisioning allowance adds roughly 30 percent.
Port Zante marina in Basseterre provides convenient fuelling and provisioning before or after the Saint Kitts circuit. Frigate Bay on the Caribbean coast offers the most sheltered overnight anchorage. The passage through The Narrows to Nevis is short in either direction, and Charlestown harbour on Nevis provides customs clearance and easy access to the plantation hotels above the town.
