Private yacht charter, arranged personally.
Atlantic and Caribbean.
“Charter is not a different experience from ownership. It is the same vessel, the same crew, and the same standards — arranged for a guest who already understands how things should be.”
We arrange charter for clients who already know what they want from a yacht. The conversation begins not with a brochure but with an understanding of how you travel, where you want to go, and what you prefer left unspoken. Our role is to understand that before anything else is discussed.
What we offer is not a booking service. It is a managed experience — from the initial conversation through to the moment you step ashore. Every detail is handled before you arrive. Nothing requires your attention on board. That is exactly what the experience is designed to feel like.
Itineraries are planned from a conversation, not assembled from templates. We want to understand the pace you prefer — long overnight passages or short hops between anchorages, steady movement or extended stays at a particular cay. The islands you already know well and the ones you have not yet reached.
Once we understand how you want to move, we plan around it. Port logistics, customs clearance, provisioning at each stop, and a full briefing for the captain before departure. When plans change — and they do — we coordinate the revision. You simply decide where you want to go.
The preparation happens before you arrive. By the time you step aboard, the vessel is provisioned to your preferences, the crew is fully briefed, the itinerary is filed, and every detail of the first passage has been attended to. Nothing is left for the guest to organise.
Food and beverage preferences confirmed well in advance. Dietary requirements accommodated without exception. Preferred labels, morning routines, any specific requests — noted and prepared before departure. The galley is not a hotel kitchen, but it is provisioned to your standard.
Charter arrangements are handled discreetly. Vessel details, guest details, and itineraries are not shared beyond those directly involved in the voyage. Your schedule is yours. The people who need to know, know. Everyone else does not.
The captain and crew are briefed on guest preferences, pace expectations, and particular requests before you arrive. Nothing is communicated for the first time on board. The crew knows what matters to you before the vessel leaves the dock.
Charter crew are not hotel staff transferred to a boat. They manage a working vessel around the guest — navigating, maintaining, and provisioning while remaining present only when needed. That balance is something that takes time and careful selection. It cannot be trained in a week.
The captains and crew placed with our charter vessels are selected for their professional qualifications and their understanding of experienced guests. They read the room. They adapt without discussion. They do not need to be asked twice, and they do not make themselves the story of your voyage.
Our charter programme is based in South Florida, with vessels operating across the Bahamas, the Exumas, the wider Caribbean, and select Mediterranean passages. The waters below represent cruising grounds we know from direct experience — the logistics, the anchorages, the seasonal conditions, and the agents worth calling.
Two hundred miles of shallow water, sand bottom, and extraordinary water clarity. The closest cruising ground to Fort Lauderdale, and among the most rewarding for a vessel of any size. The Bimini chain, the Berry Islands, and the Abacos each offer a distinct character. A week aboard barely scratches the surface.
A chain of small cays stretching south from Nassau into the clearest water in the Atlantic basin. The Exuma Land and Sea Park remains one of the most protected and unspoiled anchorages in the region. Shallow-draft vessels preferred. The logistics are manageable with the right preparation. Worth it entirely.
From the US Virgin Islands south through the Leeward and Windward Islands. Trade wind sailing, deep-water anchorages, and island cultures that retain their own character. Best from December through April, before the weather becomes complicated. Long passages between islands reward those willing to make them.
The Intracoastal, the Keys, day passages and weekend voyages from Fort Lauderdale and Miami. For guests who want the experience close to home, without the logistics of a long offshore passage. Biscayne Bay and the Upper Keys offer sheltered water and exceptional dining ashore. More than most people expect.
We begin with a direct conversation about what you want from the charter — not a form submission. The occasion, the guest profile, the pace, how long, and any preferences that matter before we discuss vessels. That understanding comes first.
Based on the conversation, we identify vessels that are right for your requirements. A small number of considered options — not a catalogue. Each recommendation comes from direct knowledge of how the vessel operates and whether it genuinely suits your trip.
Once a vessel is agreed, we plan the itinerary in full. Port logistics, provisioning, crew briefings, and all regulatory requirements handled in advance. You review and adjust. We coordinate every revision until everything is exactly as you want it.
The vessel departs prepared. Every detail confirmed. The captain fully briefed. Everything provisioned. Your only responsibility is to arrive. From that point, nothing needs your attention unless you want it to.
No questionnaires. No automated pricing. A direct conversation about your charter, the vessel, and what matters to you — at your pace.
