My BVI Charter, operated by DMA Yachting, reports a growing shift in charter preferences as more clients opt for luxury power catamarans in the British Virgin Islands, drawn by their unique blend of motor yacht luxury and catamaran efficiency and affordability.

United States, April 14, 2025 -- BVI power catamaran charters are quickly gaining popularity in the British Virgin Islands for offering what many travelers consider the best of both worlds: the onboard luxury of a motor yacht combined with the stability, space, and shallow draft of a catamaran. According to DMA Yachting, this hybrid appeal is transforming the charter landscape, as more clients look for smarter, more flexible ways to explore the Caribbean in style.

With increased interest from both returning and first-time clients, DMA Yachting is spotlighting the latest additions to the charter fleet, including several 2024-2025 builds:

- Forever Young and Earnout – two brand-new 55-ft Two Oceans models

- Maria Theresa – a newly launched 68-ft Sunreef Yacht

- Siete Mares – an impressive 78-ft Lagoon

- Blessed – an 80-ft Sunreef Yacht, among the largest and most luxurious power cats available for charter

According to DMA Yachting, these top BVI power catamaran charters, which are entirely motor-driven, provide many of the same features found on motor yachts—such as expansive deck areas, multiple social lounges, luxurious amenities, and large water toy selections—but at a significantly lower cost.

“The thing is, you can get a brand-new super luxurious 80-foot Sunreef catamaran for half the price of an older model motor yacht of the same size,” says John Boullin, a charter expert at DMA Yachting. “There is no arguing; it’s a really smart choice.”

Why Power Catamarans Are Winning in the BVI

The BVI is uniquely suited to power catamarans. Their shallow draft allows them to anchor close to shore, even in areas where deeper-draft motor yachts cannot go. One iconic example is White Bay on Jost Van Dyke, where catamarans can drop anchor just meters from famous beach bars like Soggy Dollar—allowing guests to literally swim to shore. According to the DMA Yachting team, of many who have sailed in the BVI themselves, a BVI catamaran charter is the best way to experience the beautiful Caribbean islands.

BVI power catamaran charters also offer:

• Better fuel efficiency – Consuming significantly fewer liters per hour compared to motor yachts, which translates to a lower APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance).
• More onboard space – Power cats provide up to 20% more space than a monohull of the same length.
• Improved stability – Their dual-hull design ensures smoother cruising.
• Enhanced outdoor living – Larger decks and swim platforms that lower right down to the water’s surface – ideal for water activities.

“BVI has always been known primarily as a catamaran destination,” says Daniel Asmus, yacht charter expert at DMA Yachting. “The lack of deep-water harbors limits motor yachts, which are more common in the USVI. Power cats fit the BVI climate perfectly. They're like little floating islands—stable, shallow, and with big outdoor areas. You can step right into the sea from the swim platform. It’s the ideal setup.”

DMA Yachting is seeing more clients—even many who previously chartered motor yachts—trying out power cats and choosing not to go back. The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with many citing a better connection to the water, more usable space, and better overall value.

Another major benefit is that most power catamarans fulfill the demand for BVI catamaran charters all-inclusive, unlike motor yachts, which typically operate on a plus-expenses basis. This model is especially appealing to those seeking simplicity and transparency in pricing.

“Many of our clients in the Caribbean prefer the all-inclusive experience,” says John Boullin. “It’s more predictable pricing with no worries about a growing bill along the way.”

As the BVI yacht charter market evolves, power catamarans are leading the way. DMA Yachting’s growing catalog and focus on client-driven preferences position it as a top choice for those exploring the islands in comfort and style.
