Amels of Vlissingen, Netherlands, builds steel displacement motor yachts from 55 to 83 metres, using a series-production approach that combines the efficiencies of a platform build with the customisation of a semi-bespoke commission. The yard’s AMELS 180, 200, 212, 242, 255 and 272 series are among the most recognised hull platforms in the superyacht charter fleet, offering proven seakeeping, reliable systems and interior spaces that consistently reward the charter brief.
Eleven Amels yachts are available for charter from the US Virgin Islands, spanning 55 to 80 metres and accommodating ten to sixteen guests across five to eight staterooms. Professional crews of twelve to eighteen maintain attentive service throughout the charter week, and the vessels carry comprehensive watersports equipment, generous tender garages and Jet Skis suited to the USVI’s accessible anchorages.
Weekly charter rates for Amels yachts in the USVI run from around 120,000 euros for a 55-metre vessel to 350,000 euros for the largest 80-metre examples. The advance provisioning allowance of 30 percent covers fuel, food, marina fees and drinks. Caribbean peak season from December through April is the primary charter period, and Amels yachts are among the most reliably available large-yacht options in the USVI market.
From the US Virgin Islands, Amels yachts navigate the full USVI group and cross into the BVI with ease. Their displacement hulls provide comfortable passages in any Caribbean sea state, making a week that covers both island groups entirely achievable.
