Overmarine is an Italian shipyard best known for the Mangusta brand of fast open and enclosed motor yachts, producing vessels that emphasise speed, performance and a distinctly Italian approach to exterior styling. The three Overmarine yachts available for charter around Tobago Cays bring that combination of performance and design to the Grenadines, appealing to guests who want to cover ground quickly between islands without sacrificing style at anchor.
Overmarine’s Mangusta charter yachts in the Caribbean typically span 30 to 50 metres, built in fibreglass composite with deep-V or semi-displacement hulls that deliver cruising speeds of 20 knots or more. Open versions feature dramatic cockpit layouts and minimalist interiors that prioritise sea views and alfresco living, while the larger GranSport models carry enclosed upper deck saloons and more traditional cabin arrangements.
Weekly charter rates for Overmarine yachts in the Caribbean range from approximately 60,000 to 200,000 euros depending on model and season. The Advance Provisioning Allowance of around 30 percent covers fuel for fast inter-island passages, provisions and wine, berthing at Union Island and water sports. Higher speeds mean fuel consumption is above the displacement-yacht norm; guests who plan to use the performance should budget the APA generously.
Tobago Cays is a natural fit for a performance charter in the Grenadines. The Overmarine yacht enters the national park through the northern channel and anchors in the lagoon between Baradal Island and Petit Rameau. Horseshoe Reef provides excellent snorkelling with sea turtles. Petit Bateau, Jamesby and Petit Tabac complete the park circuit, and the yacht’s speed makes day trips to Mustique or Bequia straightforward on a standard charter week.
