EU VAT paid status Designed by renowned naval architect Bruce Farr and built by Beneteau in France in 1999, this Oceanis Clipper 461 is an exceptionally well-maintained bluewater cruising yacht that perfectly combines performance, comfort and practicality. Presented with a striking blue hull, EU VAT paid status and having had just four private owners from new, she has never been chartered and is ready for her next adventure. Her proven cruising specification includes a winged bulb keel, wheel steering and a reliable 85hp Yanmar diesel engine with shaft drive. The hull has been protected with Coppercoat since 2015, while Trudesign composite seacocks were fitted in 2022. Recent upgrades include new domestic and engine batteries, new domestic water pipework, a new bilge pump and WC macerator pump, all completed in 2025.

Navigation is centred around a predominantly B&G electronics package including GPS chartplotter, autopilot, speed, depth, wind instruments and VHF. Below decks, the spacious three-cabin, two-head layout comfortably accommodates six guests, with additional berths in the saloon allowing sleeping for up to eight. The warm timber interior is complemented by a well-equipped galley, hot water system, Isotherm fridge/freezer, LED lighting and generous storage, making her equally suited to extended cruising or liveaboard life. On deck, she is fully equipped for comfortable cruising with a Rocna 25kg anchor and 100m of chain, electric windlass with remote control, sprayhood, bimini, swim platform and deck shower. Also included is a 2021 Gala A240 Lite aluminium-hulled tender with Honda 2.3hp outboard. A highly regarded Bruce Farr design with an excellent ownership history, this Oceanis Clipper 461 represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a capable, comfortable and genuinely turn-key cruising yacht. https://www.williamsandsmithells.com/boats/beneteau-oceanis-clipper-461-2/

Read the full guide → https://mybvicharter.com/bvi-islands/norman-island/ Most BVI charters sail right past the one stop you can physically swim inside. Norman Island's Pirate Caves, at Treasure Point. • The Caves are a shallow site tucked along the cliffs — calm and swimmable, with soft corals, small tunnels and reef fish in the crevices. You snorkel into them, not past them. • Norman Island is widely believed to have inspired Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, and 18th-century pirates were known to use the island's caves to stash loot. • The snorkelling here is still the best introduction to what the BVI has to offer underwater. • Our 7-day catamaran loop puts Norman Island on day one — a short cruise from Nanny Cay on Tortola. • Time The Caves for the morning, before the day boats arrive. Good timing makes it feel much less like a queue.
