Why charter this Oceanis 48 - 4 cab.
4 cabins for 8 berths means about 2 guests per cabin, so bag storage and sleeping turns are clear before departure. 4 guests per head matters on early marina mornings, when showers, breakfast and casting off compete for time. At 14,6 m, this sailing yacht works best when swim stops still leave time for the evening berth.
Best charter fit
Oceanis 48 - 4 cab. suits crews comparing cabin separation, luggage storage and bathroom timing across 4 cabins and 2 heads. Sailing crews should keep one fallback leg for wind shifts, late sea state and the final marina return.
The British Virgin Islands from Tortola
The BVI are line-of-sight sailing: steady trades and short hops down the sheltered Sir Francis Drake Channel, with a mooring ball rather than the anchor at most stops. Tortola’s Beef Island Airport (EIS) is a 20–30-minute road transfer. The first afternoon is a short shakedown run across to Norman or Peter Island, straightforward in the usual steady trades. The loop then works Cooper Island, the Baths on Virgin Gorda and the Bitter End, the park moorings taken first-come, so reach each bay early and keep the last leg an easy downwind run back up the channel. Anegada, low and reef-ringed with a careful eyeball approach in, is the one offshore leg, better added when there are days to spare beyond the week.
