fully private overnight yachting experience in The Bahamas. Guests enjoy the comfort of sleeping aboard while cruising the beautiful waters around Nassau, Paradise Island, and the Exumas.
This experience is ideal for guests who would like more than a day charter, with time to relax onboard, enjoy chef-prepared meals, explore secluded anchorages, and experience the yacht at a more leisurely pace.

- Bahamas taxes: 14% of the base charter fee
- APA: 25% to 35% of the base charter fee, depending on guest count, itinerary, and charter style

APA Explanation
The
APA, or
Advance Provisioning Allowance, is collected in addition to the charter fee and is used to cover the variable operating expenses of the trip.
The APA generally covers:
- Food and meal provisioning
- Alcohol, soft drinks, and other beverages
- Fuel
- Dockage and marina fees, if applicable
- Shore power, when applicable
- Ice and other onboard consumables
- Guest-requested incidental purchases and special requests
Any unused APA funds are
refunded at the conclusion of the charter. If actual expenses exceed the APA collected, the difference is invoiced separately.
Anchoring, Marina Stays & Relocation
Multi-day itineraries are generally planned around
overnight anchoring, weather and sea conditions permitting. Marina stays are not ordinarily included unless specifically requested in advance.
If guests would like to incorporate marina stops into the itinerary, this can certainly be reviewed during the planning process. Please note that
dockage, marina fees, shore power, and related port expenses are charged against the APA.
Relocation or repositioning requests are additional and may only be considered for charters exceeding five days, subject to operational feasibility, prevailing marine conditions, and the yacht’s existing schedule.
Because marine conditions and operational requirements can vary, anchoring is often the most natural, comfortable, and efficient arrangement for multi-night charters unless guests specifically request otherwise.
Crew Gratuity
Crew gratuity is additional and is customarily
15% to 20% of the base charter fee. While gratuity remains at the guests’ discretion, it is customary in the yachting industry and is typically offered to the crew at the conclusion of the charter based on the level of service received.
