Charlotte

Charlotte is a 2023-model, 71-foot motor yacht from Prestige, the French shipyard known for its flybridge yachts. Until her full specification is shared, read what follows as a picture of her class rather than a list of her features. Prestige yachts of around 70 feet are typically laid out with several ensuite cabins, a large flybridge for cruising in the open air, a hydraulic swim platform at the stern and twin inboard engines. Her own layout, cabin count and equipment are confirmed with the specification.

Choosing a motor yacht over a sailing catamaran changes the rhythm of a Bahamas trip. Under power, a yacht of this class moves between islands far faster than a boat under sail, so a passage that fills a sailing day can take a morning. That pace also brings islands that lie farther apart within reach of a day run, with time left for swimming, lunch ashore and a quiet anchorage by evening. And where a catamaran is often sailed by its own charter party, a yacht this size is run by a professional crew from start to finish.

Charlotte is privately owned and sits outside the Abaco Sail fleet we list alongside her. She is offered as a crewed charter, with a professional crew arranged by her owner, so the captain and crew handle navigation, anchoring, docking and the day-to-day running of the yacht. The size of the crew and what each role covers are confirmed with her specification, and her charter terms set out exactly what the fee includes. Because her owner keeps her calendar, we confirm every request with them before we quote.

Her full specification, photos, cruising grounds and rates are available on request through Sail Abacos. Tell us your preferred dates, how many nights you have in mind and the size of your party, and we will check availability with her owner and send what you need to judge her properly: the layout, guest capacity, crew, where she cruises and what the charter costs. There is no cost to ask, and nothing is booked until you have the full picture and choose to go ahead.
