Just used the 2015-2016 version of this book. It is excellent. The details are comprehensive and extremely helpful. They have researched the individual Virgins Islands very comprehensively. For example their suggests as to how to 'enter a specific bay by boat' are spot on. Do what the Scott's say! They also review the island's treasurer's with a wonderful sense of humor.

Really comprehensive review of everything you need to know about sailing in the Virgin Islands. You have to take this book with you before going if you're sailing for more than a week. Updated annually and has great tips on anchorages, restaurants, sites to see, snorkel, and dive.
