Top 10 Bahamas Power Yachts
These super mega yachts are set in the order of size, this does not mean R.M Elegant is the worlds most gorgeous power yacht, it simply the largest in this list. Over the past 5 years we have noticed a drop in the yachts which carry scuba gear on board, most are turning to rendezvous scuba diving. The other aspect which is being phased out is helicopters on deck. Many high-end luxury power yachts have a landing pad to keep a helicopter on board, but since 9/11 helicopters are not allowed to be carried on board.
The mega yachts below are vessels with captains and crew teams who have impressed Andrew the most over the past 20 years. All these yachts are privately owned and are available for private charter vacations.
RM Elegant
Wow! RM Elegant is certainly a statement, the owner wanted sleek lines which he got and he also asked to walk into the future, which the designer did. The outside lines of RM Elegant are extremely attractive and capture your imagination immediately. The crew are all Greek wonderful people who all speak fluent English, their service is magnificent and your cuisine again is world-class. I can see a warm touch of Greek cuisine creeping into this as well. The cabins were designed to impress and each one does just that. Here is a very special luxury yacht which won my soul the first time I saw her in real life. Possibly enjoying dinner and drinks on board also swayed me to RM Elegant. Here is a world-class motor yacht with a difference.
HUNTRESS
The Huntress 180' is named after the beauty Diana, Greek goddess of the Hunt. She beckons the fortunate few for an unforgettable oceanic odyssey. With four guest suites and the owner's suite, this exquisite 180' Feadship accommodates up to ten guests. Each luxurious stateroom features an en-suite bath finished in different exotic marbles. Beauty, utility and convenience are at every turn. A voyage aboard Huntress is the very definition of the good life and her crew of 14 will cater to your every need and desire. The captain and chef team assure world-class cuisine, integrity, commitment and service to each of our guests. This power boat rental is long remembered by everyone.
LADY JOY
Lady Joy has possibly one of the top 5 captain and crew teams in our industry. The captain is a very charming gentleman, he is fun and friendly with his added professionalism. His crew are also a direct clone of himself, so he has selected his crew very well. The chef, Nicolas Richert, is a renowned world-class cuisine king who has worked in a top restaurant in St Tropez. The interior of Lady joy is designed for 12 guests in 6 cabins. Guest cabins are magnificent, every amenity imagined has been provided plus internal (Formal) and external dining for guests. It is almost impossible to beat Lady Joy and her team. Power yacht charters by Lady Joy are just that, a life altering Joy.
STARSHIP
Starship is a very different private yacht, she remains as the only luxury power yacht which still retains her helicopter on board at all times. This is exceptionally unusual, because since 911 International and American law have stopped the use of helicopters on private yachts, but vessels can enjoy a heli-pad on deck, this means helicopters can land on deck on vessels with helipads a big difference from carrying one on board at all times. The captain and crew on Starship are very professional, the chef is a trained professional. Starship has always been that cozy welcoming interior, I have always been impressed with the Starship finished product, just perfect for 10 guests in 5 cabins.
NORTHERN LIGHTS
Here is a dazzler, interior color and design is in the eye of the beholder and this color used by the designer absolutely dazzled me from the time I walked on board to the time I left. To me there is no other interior of any yacht worldwide to compare with this interior, soft creams a touch of gold and the color purple are used in pictures or ornaments to make Northern Lights my ultimate interior to a private charter yacht. Carefully look at the master stateroom it is so very impressive. A fantastic captain and crew team all perform at the highest level, providing the best world-class cuisine with service to match. A power yacht charter on board Northern Lights indeed provides an experience which sows a greater seed. I can safely say that it is impossible not to enjoy every moment on board this charter yacht.

MIRACLE
Here is a wonderful luxury power yacht on which I spent a full week with my guests. Tony and Stephanie Goodwin are in charge of Miracle. Tony started cleaning the floors of yachts as (deckhand) then to first mate and finally as a Captain. This growth is what makes Tony such a well-rounded captain. In Tony's spare time he enjoys surfing, playing a round of golf and traveling to Nicaragua where he is making progress on his second home. Stephanie is at his side 24/7, she is a wiz-kid from the hospitality industry, so her position as top stewardess is perfect. The chef on board, Jim Bumgarner, has a degree from the Culinary Institute of America and has been working on yachts for the past 6 years. The interior of Miracle boasts high gloss timber finish with soft creams and tan leather furniture. Miracle is extremely sleek when viewing her moving from outside. An extremely impressive motor yacht and crew to enjoy.

Independence II ft Captain Matt Braisted is one of those fun friendly captains who seems to have been around for a good number of years and never looks older than 18 years, but he is a mans man who has selected the perfect crew to support his charter career. Independence is an impressive luxurious power yacht. Life on board flows from casual to elegant while walking into the formal dining room then to the outdoor area, you can feel the change which is great.
