Two Horizons are based on Tortola itself, including OMAKASE at Nanny Cay, which makes the BVI a good place to charter one.

Motor yacht or catamaran in the BVI?
The BVI is a short-hop cruising ground, with most anchorages under an hour apart, so a motor yacht’s speed matters less here than in the Bahamas or the Mediterranean.
For the same budget, many groups choose a large crewed catamaran in the BVI: a Sunreef 80 runs $87,000 to $112,000 a week and a Lagoon Seventy 7 $69,000 to $84,000.
