How Membership Sailing works
At SailTime Charleston, membership sailing means enjoying consistent, worry‑free access to a beautifully maintained, luxury sailboat—without the costs and hassles of ownership. As a member of our sailing club, you’ll select a specific yacht from our Charleston fleet based on your preferred size, style, and budget. That becomes your boat. You sail the same vessel every time, allowing you to build familiarity and confidence—just like owning it, but without the upkeep.
Our members love the feeling of calling their boat “mine,” and that personal connection fosters a higher level of care, community, and pride than traditional bareboat charters. It’s why we call it fractional sailing. the difference being you don’t own “your” boat, instead you use it in a fractional way! Plus, our sailing club offers an active social calendar, member events, and opportunities to connect with fellow sailors who share your passion. It’s premium boating, made easy—and joining is your ticket to more time on the water, better skills, and a like‑minded community that feels like family.

Easy, Hassle-Free Membership Sailing Club
In our exclusive Charleston membership sailing club, each yacht is limited to just eight Classic members, ensuring unparalleled access and a more personal experience. Your sailing days are thoughtfully distributed throughout the month, giving you the perfect rhythm of time on the water. With our intuitive online calendar, reserving your yacht is effortless—your boat will be prepared to impeccable standards before you arrive.
Upon reaching the marina, a quick review with our “Embark” system ensures every detail meets your expectations. Then, step aboard, cast off, and enjoy the unmatched comfort of your private‑feeling yacht. At the close of your sail, return on time so fellow members enjoy the same seamless experience. This refined membership sailing club model offers the sophistication of yacht ownership without the expense or maintenance, and far greater flexibility than any bareboat charter.
