With SailTime, ownership of a new boat in your hometown is a reality. SailTime will take care of all the monthly expenses including marina fees, insurance, maintenance and service. Additionally, you receive a guaranteed monthly income that amounts to more than your marine mortgage payment - and you'll still get to sail or cruise virtually as often as you want, when you want, using the flexibility of our on-line Scheduler.

Participation in SailTime’s Owner Member program is in high demand and is limited to just a few yachts each year per base location. If you are interested in becoming an Owner-Member then you should contact the base location you are interested in and start discussing next steps. Our Owner-Members that become Members first are the ones that get first access to the Owner-Member program so do not delay in determining where the waiting list stands with the base you are interested in. Also keep in mind that we have people joining bases as Owner-Members from locations that are half way across the country to have a boat in a location they have always dreamed of. Due to the flexibility in our scheduling system this dream also becomes a reality in that you can have a boat in a coastal location and be able to spend a week on it every few months while having it looked after professionally by our local base owner.

Brand new Hunter yachts in the mid-size range will be considered. Yachts must be ordered while working with SailTime to ensure that everything is set up properly for the program. One of our finance partners will help you obtain the financing that suits your needs. Due to our market position we have been able to obtain several financing programs from major financing companies and these benefits are provided to you. Yachts typically require a minimum 20% down payment but some of our financing sources have flexibility even in this area. .

Yacht ownership may be able to provide you substantial tax benefits. If you plan to treat your yacht as a second home you can deduct the interest paid on the bank note. Also, you may also be able to deduct the book depreciation on the yacht. Talk to your accountant for details as SailTime does not offer tax advice.

At the end of the term of the agreement you may decide to keep, sell, or trade-in your yacht for a new one and continue in the program.

SailTime Owner Members enjoy the pride of yacht ownership without any of the worries that are associated with it.
