The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance. Cleaning, tourist tax, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are billed at the base — we confirm the full breakdown when you request a quote.
Perfect for larger groups The Lagoon 70 8 Zenit is a superb choice if you're chartering with family or friends, four cabins sleeping up to eight makes it genuinely spacious for a catamaran of this size. The 2024 build means everything is contemporary and reliably well-maintained, which matters when you're flying long-haul to get here.
Standout comfort features You're getting proper luxury touches: teak decking, a flybridge for lounging, air conditioning, heating, and a water maker for extended cruising without worrying about refill stops. The swimming platform, snorkeling gear, and SUP included sweeten the deal considerably for a mixed-ability group wanting to explore beyond just sailing.
Solid value proposition Zero deposit is genuinely unusual and removes friction, especially helpful when arranging insurance and logistics from abroad. NSS Charter's 4.3/5 rating across 10 reviews is respectable, though the modest review count means you'd want to dig into recent feedback before committing.
One practical note We don't have the charter base location listed here, which matters significantly for international clients planning flights and transfers. Before booking, confirm the base location, local airport proximity, and whether NSS offers airport pickup, these logistics can make or break a long-haul charter experience.

Based at Nelson's Dockyard, in Antigua, Antigua and Barbuda. Zenit - First Class (ANU) is operated by NSS Charter.
Dockyard Drive
Nelson's Dockyard is Antigua's primary yacht base and sits perfectly for exploring the Leeward Islands; week one typically involves easy downwind passages to Montserrat, Guadeloupe, or the nearby Grenadines with consistent trade winds pushing you south. The protected anchorages around Antigua itself offer several sheltered bays for shorter days, making it ideal for crews adjusting to boat handling after long flights. From here you can work south through the volcanic peaks and reef systems of the Lesser Antilles, or north towards Barbuda and St. Kitts depending on your preferred pace and wind conditions.
