Overmarine, builders of the Mangusta planing motor yacht range, produce vessels from 20 to 50 metres characterised by aggressive exterior lines, large open cockpits and genuine top-end speed. The yard’s design philosophy prioritises the outdoor experience, with expansive aft decks and integrated terraces that suit warm-water anchorage living in the US Virgin Islands. A Mangusta’s speed makes it possible to cover multiple USVI and BVI destinations in a single day without sacrificing time at anchor.
Three Overmarine yachts are available for charter from the US Virgin Islands, typically accommodating six to ten guests across three to five cabins. Open cockpit designs with large sunbathing areas and retractable platforms are characteristic, and crews of three to five maintain efficient service while keeping the informal, outdoor charter atmosphere intact.
Weekly charter rates for Overmarine yachts in the USVI run from around 40,000 to 120,000 euros depending on size. The advance provisioning allowance of 30 percent covers fuel, provisions, marina fees and drinks. The planing hull means fuel consumption at speed is higher than a displacement yacht, a factor the advance provisioning allowance accounts for. USVI peak weeks in December and January book ahead.
From the US Virgin Islands, Overmarine speed enables a morning run from St Thomas to St John, an afternoon in the BVI and an evening return to St Thomas with ease, making these yachts a compelling option for guests who want maximum itinerary flexibility.
