Yacht Description
Freshened up, sensibly. LEXINGTON is an 84-foot Horizon motor yacht built in 2006 and refit in 2023, set up for up to 8 guests. Classic bones, updated where it counts.
Easy water access. The lower deck swim platform and outdoor shower make swim stops simple: in, out, rinse, repeat. Add stabilizers at anchor and you get calmer hang time when everyone is floating, snorkeling, or just refusing to get back on board. Good.
Real deck living. You get multiple outdoor zones for the day: an aft deck arranged for meals, a foredeck with sun pads, and a flybridge that runs as an alfresco dining spot with tender storage. No scavenger hunt for a seat.
Toys for all ages. A 24' Cobia tender handles quick runs, and the lineup includes a 2-person Sea-Doo Jet Ski, kayaks, paddleboards, towables, water skis, a wakeboard, and snorkel gear. There’s even a drone and underwater camera for the “we totally did that” evidence.
Four-cabin layout. Accommodation is in 4 en-suite cabins: a master with a king, two VIPs with queens, and a twin. It suits three couples plus kids, or a mixed group that wants everyone properly bedded.

Charter Reviews
Thank you so much for these wonderful photos and video! What a great trip! The crew looks outstanding, clearing going above and beyond. I hope to book them again in the near future. Thanks for sharing this.
Here is the feedback I received:
Client:
We have all returned home safe and sound with memories of our trip of a lifetime.
I want to thank you for all your work on our behalf. You answered all of our questions in a timely fashion and professionally handled every aspect of this trip.
The Lexington was the perfect yacht for us - spacious enough to comfortably move around yet cozy enough for us to be together for cocktails, meals, and relaxing. In addition, the Lexington is beautifully appointed.
Our itinerary was a trip to the Exumas. Every day had the perfect amount of cruising time and play time and, of course, all of this was perfectly executed by the crew. Our captain, Chopi, was skilled way beyond his years and Johan, the first mate, worked with him in complete harmony.Our chef, Ranada, delighted our palates at every meal and Charley, our steward created the most beautiful table settings to complement Ranada’s meal. They all worked so hard every day but they never seemed stressed and they always had a smile to share.
This was absolutely the trip of a lifetime for each one of us. Thank you,
But mostly I wanted you to know about the crew: Chopi, Johan, Renada, and Charley. Their professionalism was exceptional, they anticipated our needs and provided each one of us with an unforgettable experience. Chopi handled the Lexington seamlessly and Johan worked with him in complete synchrony. Renada’s meals never ceased to impress and Charley, who never stopped smiling, dazzled us with her table settings and her skilled bed making (I know that is not easy). Every room greeted us every day with a new shine and everyone worked together to make our daily adventures fun.
They never stopped working and they always had each other’s back. They executed your itinerary suggestions to the Exumas so that each day was filled with just the right amount of cruising and playtime. It was sheer perfection.
Thank you for sharing the Lexington and this crew with us.
‘I had a charter on her last summer, it was not your ordinary family vacation charter, this was for the race committee during a regatta with many boats in attendance. Captain Bill and his crew went above and beyond to successfully execute and deliver their every challenging request and requirement. There was a lot of organization involved, race gear onboard, team playing, and complicated scheduling. Bill and his crew were fantastic, the charter very successful!’
