Broadwater

Editorial profile. Profile restated from public charter listings, broker fleet pages and yacht press; no yacht, owner, captain or crew was contacted. Specifications and rates are indicative and subject to change with season and availability.

Broadwater is a 55-metre Feadship, originally delivered in 1994 and thoroughly refitted with a stern extension in 2020, a yacht that proves Feadship build quality endures for decades. She sleeps twelve across six cabins and has become a fixture of the Caribbean charter scene, a regular at the Antigua show and a familiar sight across the Virgin Islands. She offers the reassurance of the world's finest yard at a rate that reflects her vintage rather than her pedigree.

On board

Her six staterooms include a main-deck master and an upper-deck VIP, with four further guest cabins aft, all comfortably and traditionally finished. The 2020 refit brought new decking, interiors and updated systems, keeping her current, and the interior carries welcoming salons tuned to relaxed island cruising. A crew of around thirteen run a friendly, experienced operation, and the yacht's timeless Feadship lines still turn heads in every anchorage she visits.

On deck & in the water

The stern extension added a jacuzzi, new deck space and a sundeck day head, enhancing an already sociable exterior, while the beach club brings guests to the water. Her toy inventory suits the shallow, warm waters of the Caribbean and Bahamas, where she spends her winters, and her decks are made for long, easy days at anchor. She repositions to the Mediterranean in summer, but the islands are her natural home.

Why she books

Broadwater books because she offers a genuine Feadship, refitted and current, at a Caribbean-friendly rate that few yachts of her quality can match. Families and groups planning Virgin Islands and Bahamas charters value her provenance, her sociable decks and her seasoned crew. Her long presence on the charter circuit and dependable programme make her a trusted, well-loved choice for winter island cruising.
