The 57th Annual Antigua Charter Yacht Show took place in early December and featured 15 catamarans currently available for charter in the Caribbean.
Part of the charter broker’s role is traveling to charter yacht shows to personally inspect the yachts, meet the crew and stay up to date on the cruising grounds. So far this year, I have attended the USVI Charter Yacht Show, the BVI Charter Yacht Show as well as the Antigua Charter Yacht Show.
With more than 230 power and sailing catamarans available in the Caribbean, these were three of my favorites that really stood out in Antigua.
CHE | Sunreef 114 2010 – Sleeps up to 8 guests, with 6 crew
CHE is the largest catamaran available for charter in the Caribbean and the third largest in the world. She underwent a massive refit in 2018, with the owner upgrading her soft goods and even remodeling two of the cabins. She has tons of space; with a beam of 42′, guests will find multiple living areas to relax, sunbath or enjoy appetizers and cocktails. The flybridge has large sunpads on either side and a spacious area for alfresco dining. She is also equipped with the latest toys, including two sailing dinghies.
JOY | Lagoon 77 2018 – Sleeps up to 8 guests, with 4 crew
JOY is one of three 77 Lagoons available for charter in the Caribbean, but the only one that comes with 4 crew members for that extra level of pampering and luxury. The master suite has a unique feature, a spacious full walk-in closet. Her salon offers multiple seating areas, including a bar lounge, with direct access to the forward cockpit. The flybridge has a hardtop cover, which protects guests from the elements and is another great area for relaxing, with 360-degree views. There’s also a transom beach club, great for soaking up the sun, watching friends/family enjoy water sports as well as hopping in and out of the water with ease
CHRISTINA TOO | Supreme 68 2017 – Sleeps up to 8 guests, with 3 crew
CHRISTINA TOO is a Sunreef Supreme 68 and is one of the most elegant power catamarans available for charter. The foredeck has a jacuzzi, with giant sunpads on either side. Her flybridge has even more seating, with an enormous sunpad space and removable sunshade. She has a large garage, capable of holding a tender, Seabobs, paddleboards, fishing equipment and any other toys you can think of. Her interior compliments the exterior, with elegant finishes. Each cabin offers an ensuite with rain shower, extra plush queen-sized beds, floor length mirrors and individual A/C controls. The salon also features floor to ceiling glass doors, which allow guests to enjoy a giant outdoor/indoor living space.
