Alloy Yachts, the New Zealand yard known for its aluminium sailing superyachts, brings the finest Pacific craftsmanship to the quiet Leeward Island waters of Sint Eustatius. Three are available for charter in the region, in the forty to sixty-metre range, representing some of the most highly regarded sailing commissions of the past two decades.
The yard at Henderson, Auckland, built a fleet of sailing yachts that are now among the most sought-after charter vessels in the world. Each commission was individually designed and constructed in welded aluminium, with rigs engineered for efficient passage making and interiors finished to the standard of the best New Zealand cabinet work. Several Alloy Yachts have won international design and quality awards.
Sint Eustatius is an exceptional base for sailing yachts of this quality. The northeast trade winds that define Caribbean sailing from November through April blow reliably in the Sint Eustatius channel, and the passages between Sint Eustatius, Saba, St Kitts and Sint Maarten offer genuinely satisfying blue-water conditions without the complexity of longer ocean passages.
Three Alloy Yachts charter in the Sint Eustatius region, accommodating eight to twelve guests in four to six staterooms. Weekly rates are negotiated individually and typically run from 150,000 to 300,000 euros, with advance provisioning allowances of thirty percent. The season runs from November through April, with peak pricing in December and January when the trade winds are most reliable.
