Antigua Yacht Charters
An Antigua luxury yacht charter offers unbelievable natural beauty and historical landmarks that are unrivalled in the Leeward Islands . Designer shops and lavish restaurants can be found within enchanting streetscapes of pastel facades. Once the Caribbean base of the British Navy, Antigua now boasts both a vibrant culture and a huge variety of beaches to offer a relaxing, sun-soaked charter vacation.
Antigua Luxury Yacht Charter An island with a great nautical heritage, Antigua is home to the only Georgian dockyard in the world. Over a hundred Antigua beaches of powder-soft sand, secret coves and turquoise blue waters are set against a backdrop of volcanic hills and surrounding islands. The A-list population of the island enjoy an average yearly temperature of 28°C, which only reduces to 25°C in January. A summer charter is particularly preferable with 8 hours of sunshine a day and the temperature of the Caribbean Sea around 30°C.
Luxury Yacht Charters in Antigua Antigua luxury yacht charters often start at the popular Jolly Harbour Marina before visiting Dickenson Bay and neighbouring island Barbuda, later stopping at Green Island and the world-famous Falmouth Harbour. Antigua offers stunning Baroque architecture, a National Park and some of the Caribbean’s best diving sites but is most famously home to Captain Nelson’s dockyard which provides a truly unforgettable charter experience.
Yacht Charters in Antigua
Named Sunsail’s ‘Destination of the Month’ for November, Antigua is certainly one of the finest Caribbean hot spots to enjoy during the winter. Whilst the weather reaches its peak temperatures in the months between December and April, the charter grounds are typically busier. With this in mind, visiting during the off-season means guests can enjoy some tranquility whilst still indulging in an inviting climate.
Charter Itineraries in Antigua With the Monserrat islands south of Antigua, neighbouring St. Kitts, St. Barts , St. Martin and Barbuda, an Antigua yacht charter offers a wealth of opportunities. The unique character of these islands is what makes Antigua such a popular superyacht destination. Parts of the Leeward Islands, such as St. Barts and the Virgin Islands , are particularly popular charter destinations due to their glamour and vibrant culture.
Chartering a Private Yacht in Antigua For more information about renting a private luxury charter yacht in Antigua and Barbuda, please contact your preferred Yacht Charter Broker , who can assist you in organising your dream itinerary, taking into account the needs of your party and the best time of year to visit this picture-perfect destination.

Strong interest for 2024!
The Superyacht Cup Palma 2023 , Europe’s longest-running superyacht regatta, starts tomorrow, 22 June, and all your friends in Antigua wish the superyacht owners, captains and crew a superb regatta!
Looking forward to March next year, The 2024 Superyacht Challenge Antigua is once again proving to be popular. A magnificent fleet of Superyachts is expected to be taking part with strong expressions of interest received for the regatta to be held from 11-17 March 2024.
The 218ft (66m) Dykstra/Reichel Pugh ketch Hetairos, which won her class in 2022 and set a new Round Antigua Race Record, is the largest yacht of the current expressions of interest. The 182ft (55.5m) Dykstra schooner Adela, winner of the Gosnell Trophy in 2017, is expected to be back for her seventh regatta. Swan 90 Freya (27.5m) is anticipated to be racing in her fourth regatta.
Three debutants are likely to be racing including the brand new 194ft (59m) Frers ketch Maximus, the 123ft (37.5m) Dubois sloop Anemoi and the 90ft (28m) Stephens Waring & White ketch Bequia.
The Superyacht Challenge Antigua is an invitational event, open to superyachts in excess of 30 metres but yachts of 25 metres can also request entry. The Oyster 82 Zig Zag (25m) is expected for her eighth regatta in a row. Last year Zig Zag won the Gosnell Trophy for the second time.

![super yachts antigua 81m superyacht Alfa Nero to be auctioned in Antigua](https://cdn.boatinternational.com/convert/files/2021/06/943dbba0-d802-11eb-bb8c-03fdc0a69099-alfa-nero.jpg/r%5Bwidth%5D=320/943dbba0-d802-11eb-bb8c-03fdc0a69099-alfa-nero.webp)
81m Oceanco superyacht Alfa Nero finds new owner, ending years-long abandonment saga
The 81.3-metre Alfa Nero has been sold for $40 million with Northrop & Johnson's Richard Higgins bringing the buyer and assistance from FEMA Management (Federal Emergency Management Agency) on the side of the seller. According to Northrop & Johnson, the yacht was on the market just ten days before closing.
The sale brings two years of legal wrangling to an end, following the yacht's arrest in 2022. At the time, she was put under investigation amid allegations that her owner was sanctioned and was later declared "abandoned" by the government of Antigua and Barbuda.
"The proceeds from the sale will be used to fulfill various obligations, including settling outstanding debts owed to creditors and the crew since the yacht’s arrival," read a statement by the Antigua Newsroom. "In addition to covering these debts, a portion of the proceeds will be allocated to address the $220 million funding gap [in the local government] recorded for the first half of 2024".
In June 2023, between her abandonment and current sale, she was sold at auction to former Google CEO Eric Schmidt for $67,000,677 but the sale was not finalised due to legal complications. This could be referring to a last-minute application by Flying Dutchman Overseas Limited (understood to be the registered owner of the vessel) to block the sale ahead of the auction.
Since then, "the extended stay of the vessel has presented significant financial, environmental, and other challenges for Antigua and Barbuda," according to a government spokesperson. Issues around vessel maintenance, fuel costs, legal fees and unpaid crew wages were all under scrutiny since the yacht's seizure.
Alfa Nero is notable for her aft deck pool which stretches 12 metres and can be raised to form a helipad or dancefloor- a feature that was especially impressive when the yacht was delivered in 2007. Nuvolari Lenard is responsible for her exterior design.

Insiders still have no idea what's going to happen to Russian oligarchs' seized superyachts
- It's been two years since Russia invaded Ukraine, leading to sanctions against Russian oligarchs.
- Many of their superyachts were seized or frozen , leading industry insiders to question their fate.
- The yachts, some of which are worth hundreds of millions of dollars, remain in a state of limbo.
More than two years after Russia invaded Ukraine, the boating world still doesn't have many answers about what's going on with the very large, expensive elephants in the sea: oligarchs' superyachts .
The war prompted many governments to enact sanctions against Russia's richest , including seizing their superyachts worth hundreds of millions of dollars. But it's unclear whether they can be sold or who'd buy them, leaving ports peppered with massive boats stuck in a floating limbo.
"The Russian problem, it's becoming a bigger and bigger and bigger problem," one luxury yacht broker told Business Insider at the Palm Beach International Boat Show last week. Like many others, he requested not to be named, given the sensitive nature of the matter at hand and the generally discreet nature of the industry.
Russia has been a massive player in the massive boat market for a long time. In August 2021 — about six months before Russia's Ukraine invasion — Russians owned the second-largest share of yachts over 40 meters in length, according to a report from the industry publication SuperYacht Times.
They were responsible for 16% of new build superyacht purchases in the decade preceding the report and are known for splashing out on extravagant interiors and unique features. (One builder BI spoke to recalled a mandate from an oligarch for a large safe in the owner's cabin in which he could keep his rifles. The builder later learned he'd use them to skeet shoot on deck.)
But those sales have now screeched to a halt as oligarchs get hit by international sanctions. At least a dozen superyachts — worth well over $1 billion combined — have been affected.
And no one is quite sure what will happen to them.
Russia's sanctioned superyachts are hard to buy and sell
The first problem is that many of the yachts are "frozen" — not seized. That means that although the Russian owners can't operate or collect them, they don't technically belong to an overseas government, so they can't be sold without special permission.
Earlier this month, federal prosecutors petitioned a judge asking for consent to sell the Amadea, the 106-meter superyacht that has been docked in San Diego and costs the US as much as $922,000 a month to maintain.
"I've had some inquiries, but all you can tell them is we don't know the outcome yet" of the case, another superyacht broker told BI at the yacht show.
And despite the broker's claim of interest in yachts like Amadea , most ultrarich — or at least their brokers — don't want to go near the vessels with a ten-foot pole, even if the government does get legal permission to sell them.
"How does it look if you bought a Russian boat?" Julia Simpson, a broker at Thompson of Monaco, said. "Even if it's completely legal and normal, there are too many things on the line," she said, like how the original owner got their money and whether that could make the new buyer look bad.
There are also possible legal implications, as it's hard for the government to prove who actually owns the yachts.
"Oligarchs typically structure their ownership of these high-value assets through a web of offshore shell companies and trusts that is designed to conceal the true owner," Joshua Naftalis, a former federal prosecutor who now works for Pallas Partners, told BI.
And if the government does assume ownership, it's highly dependent on court orders. For example, a Russian whose yacht had been seized by the French government regained access to his boat after winning a legal battle in 2022.
"It's a very difficult process to buy them," Ralph Dazert, the head of intelligence at SuperYacht Times, told BI. "There is a high risk of the former (Russian) owner suing you to get the boat back."
He pointed to the Alfa Nero, the 82-meter yacht that Eric Schmidt planned to purchase for $67 million last year in an auction put on by Antigua and Barbuda. He backed out after various parties tried to block the sale, likely deeming it not worth the legal headache.
"When the reason for sanctioning goes away, which it may do," the Russian owners will try to get their boats back , Simpson said. After all, "the government's not going to pay them."'
That said, if sanctions are dropped, the yachts will be worth much less than when they were seized, as a boat not in use deteriorates much faster than one sailing the seas.
"Those yachts need to be used to be kept in shape, kept in condition," the second broker said. "Just having them sit at the dock with a temporary crew on board is not good for the boats."
And the sanctioned Russians who have managed to maintain control of their superyachts won't have an easy time offloading them in the future.
Americans who try to do business with sanctioned oligarchs would have a number of hoops to jump through — like finding a bank to process the purchase, which would be next to impossible. If somehow they did and the government caught wind, they'd face hefty penalties and the transaction would be void.
So Russia's richest have found themselves "stuck" sailing in a select few countries that will let them, like the Maldives, Montenegro, and Dubai.
