SailTime Membership & Yacht Ownership in Western Long Island
If you’ve been searching for sailing clubs on Western Long Island, you’ve likely run into the usual roadblocks: scarce slips, high costs, and boats that rarely leave the dock. Traditional ownership eats up time and money — long before you ever leave the marina.
SailTime sailing clubs across Western Long Island offers the modern alternative. Our shared membership sailing program gives you guaranteed access to a fleet of new, professionally maintained sailboats located in top harbors like Port Washington, Oyster Bay, and Huntington Bay. Just book your time online, step aboard, and enjoy the sail. We handle the hard stuff — you get the wind and water.
Looking to take things further? SailTime’s Yacht Ownership Program lets you own a new boat, earn from member use in the sailing clubs, and leave all the logistics to us. Whether you’re a seasoned sailor, New York metro resident, or someone who’s always wanted a boat — now you can own without the overhead.
Join as a Member. Invest as an Owner. Either way — the harbor is calling.
BUSINESS QUESTIONNAIRE
SAILING ACCESS: UNLOCKED
Western Long Island gives you instant access to Long Island Sound, Great South Bay, and hidden harbors — but most people find getting on the water harder than it should be.
Unless you own a boat and a slip in Port Washington or Huntington, your sailing options are limited. Marina waitlists span years. Rentals are inconsistent. And boat ownership? It comes with full-time headaches: winter storage, engine repairs, insurance costs, and hours of cleaning.
Yet the appeal never fades. Whether it’s sailing out of Cold Spring Harbor, anchoring off Fire Island, or exploring Great South Bay on a quiet afternoon — the sailing lifestyle is irresistible.
SailTime sailing clubs change everything. Members reserve a sleek, ready-to-go yacht through our app — no maintenance, no fees, no stress. And for those looking to own, our managed Yacht Ownership Program provides an investment that sails itself.
Sailing in the Sound shouldn’t be complicated. With SailTime sailing clubs, it’s finally easy.

What if yoU COULD OWN A SAILBOAT
WITHOUT THE HASSLE?

When you place your new sailboat into our sailing clubs managed fleet, you sail it monthly, while members use it the rest of the time. We take care of everything: maintenance, scheduling, cleaning, insurance. You enjoy the boat — and offset ownership costs.
