A closer look
The Aft Deck Lounge
The aft deck serves as the primary gathering point, a shaded sanctuary where the Caribbean breeze whispers. Plush seating invites long, languid conversations over morning pastries or sundowners. Here, the gentle hum of the yacht at anchor becomes the soundtrack to card games and quiet contemplation, offering unobstructed views of the ever-shifting seascape, framed by the vessel's sturdy lines.
Main Saloon Comfort
Within the main saloon, custom cabinetry and soft furnishings create an environment of understated elegance. Large windows flood the space with natural light, connecting the interior to the vibrant world outside. This is a versatile area for relaxed lounging, perhaps enjoying a film from the media server, or simply unwinding with a book, enveloped in air-conditioned comfort after a day in the sun.
Flybridge Vista
Ascend to the flybridge, a prime vantage point for panoramic Caribbean vistas. This open-air domain, equipped with comfortable seating, is perfect for soaking in the sun's warmth or enjoying an al fresco lunch. Feel the invigorating spray as the yacht glides through the waves, or simply revel in the expansive horizon, a fresh brew from the onboard coffee machine in hand.
Galley's Heartbeat
Though often unseen by guests, the galley is the vibrant core of the yacht's culinary offerings. Equipped with modern appliances, it is here that the crew craft delectable meals and refreshing beverages. The constant availability of fresh ice from the onboard maker ensures cool drinks are always within reach, enhancing every moment spent on board.
Foredeck Solarium
The foredeck offers a secluded spot for sun worshippers. Padded sunbeds invite guests to stretch out and bask in the tropical warmth, far from the activity of the aft deck. It’s an ideal location for private moments, perhaps with a good book, or simply to feel the sun on your skin as the yacht cruises, offering a unique perspective of the approaching coastline.
Accommodation
Four thoughtfully appointed cabins provide a restful retreat for six guests. The master suite, typically midships, offers generous proportions and a private ensuite, ensuring privacy and comfort. Guest cabins, comprising a mix of double and twin configurations, are each equipped with individual climate control and satellite television, transforming into personal havens at day's end. The layout is designed for ease of movement and quiet repose, allowing for undisturbed rest after exhilarating days spent exploring the Caribbean's wonders.
Culinary experiences are tailored to individual preferences, orchestrated by the dedicated crew. Meals can be savoured in various settings, from the elegant main saloon dining area to the more casual, open-air aft deck. Fresh, local ingredients form the cornerstone of every dish, prepared with flair and served with attentive grace. An ice maker ensures chilled beverages are always at hand, complementing each meal and refreshment throughout the day.
While not a dedicated spa vessel, the yacht fosters a profound sense of wellbeing through its tranquil atmosphere and connection to the sea. Stabilisers ensure smooth cruising, minimising motion for utmost comfort. The clear Caribbean waters invite refreshing swims directly from the swim platform, a natural, invigorating wellness activity. Enjoy a fresh cup from the coffee machine, or simply unwind in the comfortable, air-conditioned interiors, finding calm in the gentle rhythm of the ocean.
The ocean becomes your playground with a selection of engaging water toys. Deploy the inflatable floating island for a relaxed afternoon adrift, or simply lounge on the floating mats, soaking in the sun. Swimming noodles offer effortless buoyancy for a refreshing dip, whilst the towable tube promises exhilarating rides across the waves for those seeking a burst of adrenaline. These simple pleasures ensure every moment on the water is filled with joy and activity.

Joe Standish

Capt Joe your skipper, owner and cook joined the US Navy at age 17 and has been Captaining ships ever since. Now he's a "belonger" in the BVI, one of the few belonger skippers. He has run cruise ships, casino boats, worked in the oil industry, and the state run ferries in Louisiana, basically anything that floats he can drive.He moved to the BVI in 1999 and has been running a successful charter business since. Joe possibly runs one of the oldest charter businesses here in the BVI, needless to say his local knowledge and experience is second to none. 1st Mate Michael is from the spice island of Grenada, he also has worked on cruise ships (Star Clipper Line, P&O) and has traveled the world, Michael was running a ;local cargo boat when Irma shower her ugly face and ended up on the rocks of North Sound Virgin Gorda. Michael has been with Prime Time for over a year and loves taking the guests out with the tender, to dinner and drinks at night and fishing with the little ones from the back of the boat while at anchor (he does this most nights) The crew want people to be comfortable, and act like they would at home, we are very laid back. Our Companies Motto has always been "Come as Guests...Leave as Friends..." that still holds true while running Prime Time but we have added a new one for the niche we plan on filling in this industry, "Yachting on a Beer Budget". With that mentality we also want our guests to "embrace the local culture", which is why we only do breakfast and lunches onboard we believe that a yacht charter here in the BVI is so much more than just being on a beautiful boat for 7 days. Your Crew wants you to enjoy the things that "we do", whether that be local BBQ or fish fry, drinks on the beach or just chilling on your own private beach we will make your time with us a memorable one. Whether you choose to charter the entire yacht or join us for our monthly "cabin only charters" you will not be disappointed. The Yacht is totally comfortable and luxurious, the crews' attention to detail is what is expected in this industry and Joes' home cooked meals are maybe not as good as "Moms", but run a close second :)

What a yacht like PRIME TIME costs to own — not just to charter
A charter week on PRIME TIME is a fixed, all-in number. Ownership of a 27m yacht in this class is a five-year commitment — crew payroll, insurance, class and refit reserves, berthing and depreciation. Our yacht ownership vs charter vs fractional ownership study runs the real five-year cost of a €15 million yacht against the equivalent charter spend, and the most profitable yachts for owners ranking shows how much of that stack charter revenue actually recovers.
