Antigua Charter Yacht Show 2026
Inspect the yacht. Read the crew. Taste the charter.
04 — 09 December 2026English Harbour · Antigua & Barbuda65 years · since 1961
A charter-first Lund Group hub for selecting Caribbean yachts through real inspection discipline: crew, chef, cabins, decks, toys, service and guest fit.
Charter first. Not a buying-tour page.
Antigua is where yacht charter becomes a lived product.
The yacht is only the beginning.
Antigua is where charter professionals assess the living product: the captain, the crew, the chef, the service style, the cabin reality, deck flow, toys, maintenance, tender procedures and the mood onboard.
A brochure cannot show service.
A yacht may photograph beautifully and still not suit a family, principal, celebration group, wellness charter or owner considering purchase. Lund Group uses the show to build practical recommendations, not generic lists.
Show week becomes Caribbean season.
The work done in English Harbour can inform Christmas, New Year, winter and spring charter decisions across Antigua, St Barth, St Martin, Anguilla, the BVI, USVI, Grenadines and Barbados.
Lund Group does not imply official access, yacht attendance, Sail Day participation, pricing or availability. Every recommendation must be checked yacht by yacht.

Create my inspection planPrimary charter brief
Tell us how the charter should feel.
Dates and budget matter. So do the chef, cabins, beach club, children, water toys, privacy, route rhythm and the crew's ability to read the guests.
Crew and service
The best charter choice is often a people decision.
Crew chemistry, captain style, service rhythm and discretion can matter as much as length, builder or deck volume.
Prioritise crew fitPrivate inspection workflow
A yacht inspection is not a photo walk.
Yacht
Length, builder, refit, home port, cabins, guest count, charter terms and whether the yacht is physically inspectable.
Crew
Captain style, service rhythm, language capability, family suitability, tender operations and discretion.
Chef
Cuisine range, dietary confidence, plating, Caribbean sourcing, children, wellness and special-occasion dining.
Cabins
Principal suite, VIP cabins, twins, Pullmans, children, crew proximity, privacy and night-time comfort.
Decks
Shade, dining, sun areas, bridge deck, beach club, swim platform, gym, cinema and evening flow.
Toys
Tender, chase boat, seabobs, e-foils, diving, inflatable setup, beach landings and crew supervision.
01
Define the charter brief
Guests, dates, budget, style, cabins, crew priorities, food, toys, pace and must-have island stops.
02
Build the inspection list
Separate show yachts, wider market yachts, potential holiday options and yachts worth monitoring.
03
Walk the docks
Inspect layouts, crew, chef, cabins, decks, tenders, toys and service details with a broker's eye.
04
Score and shortlist
Compare fit, risk, guest experience, operational readiness and charter terms before recommending.
05
Secure the charter
Request availability, place holds where possible, negotiate details and coordinate contracting through appropriate parties.
06
Operate the journey
Private aviation, transfers, provisioning preferences, villa or hotel nights, security, restaurants and post-charter extensions.

Editable show programme
Use the official windows. Add private charter work around them.
Subject to official updates and access approval
Programme rows will appear after they are published by Lund Group.
Show marinas
The dock-walking map.
Published marina records are being prepared.
Chef and interiors
A charter recommendation should taste the yacht.
Food, dietary confidence, interior service and how the crew handles a table can determine whether a yacht is right for a principal, family or guests.
Request chef-led shortlistReal yachts only
No invented attendance. No invented availability.
Public yacht profiles appear only when a real record has been approved, verified and published. Until then, this section stays intentionally empty.
Approved Antigua yacht profiles will appear here only after real details are supplied, verified and approved for publication.
Cabin reality
Layouts decide who sleeps well.
Cabins, Pullmans, twins, master privacy, crew proximity and guest movement are reviewed against the exact client profile, not generic brochure language.
