Tortola, British Virgin Islands, is home to The Moorings’ flagship base and one of the most desirable locations in the world to purchase a pre-owned cruising yacht. Our Tortola BVI brokerage inventory typically includes a mix of sailing catamarans, monohulls, and power yachts retiring from The Moorings and Sunsail charter fleets, all of which have been professionally maintained throughout their service life. For many buyers, acquiring a yacht already located in Road Town means you can step aboard in the heart of the BVI and start exploring legendary anchorages in Norman Island, Virgin Gorda, and Jost Van Dyke without an immediate ocean crossing or delivery.

Buying in the BVI can also simplify the first phase of ownership: many new owners choose to enjoy one or more seasons cruising locally before deciding whether to keep their yacht in the Caribbean or relocate it to North America or Europe. Our Moorings Yacht Brokerage team in Tortola is experienced in working with international buyers and can assist with sea trials, documentation, closing, and coordination of deliveries or handovers. Explore our current selection of used boats for sale in Tortola, BVI, and find a yacht positioned at the gateway to one of the world’s premier sailing destinations.

Each used boat for sale in Tortola has followed structured fleet maintenance schedules and benefits from the on-site technical resources of The Moorings’ largest base, where many services are handled in-house—from mechanical and electrical work to rigging and cosmetic care. When these yachts complete their charter program, they transition into the brokerage market with documented histories, making it easier for prospective owners to review records, arrange surveys, and plan refits or upgrades. Whether you are seeking a Leopard catamaran for blue-water cruising, a comfortable monohull for extended liveaboard life, or a power yacht for fast island-hopping, Tortola offers a broad selection of ex-charter boats at competitive prices.
