Yachts in the harbour at Gustavia, a short sail from Saint-Martin.

Why tie up the full price to sail 25 days a year?

A 12 to 14 metre yacht sits on its mooring more than 330 days a year. A single owner pays all of the purchase, the berth, the insurance and the maintenance for four weeks of use at most.

“You are not buying a quarter of a boat. You are buying three times more sea, for a quarter of the capital.”

Contributions are indicative, after tax relief and the current launch offer, excluding options and commissioning. The management company and each co-owner contribute the same amount.

Real ownership, with a committed manager.

Each yacht is owned by its own operating company. You join its capital alongside the management company and two other co-owners, so everyone's interests point the same way.

All four partners contribute the same amount. The manager holds 28% in return for covering every operating cost, charter marketing and the day-to-day responsibility for the boat. The three co-owners hold 24% each, with the same rights, days and conditions.

  • 24% of the capital of the company that owns the yacht
  • A contractual right to 90 sailing days per calendar year
  • An equal share of the charter result
  • A partner's oversight of the management and accounts
  • Transferable shares: the manager helps you find a buyer and holds a right of first refusal

90 days a year, and fair access to the best dates.

Every co-owner follows the same allocation rule. December and January are kept for chartering, the most profitable period of the year, and that charter time never comes out of your 90 days.

Book ahead or last minute

A shared calendar lets you book months ahead for holidays and regattas, or the day before when the boat is free.

Your date is your date

A confirmed booking is never cancelled by the manager, not even for a profitable charter.

Always ready

Fuelled, cleaned and checked before every departure, with one contact for bookings and guests.

Zero running costs, and a shared result.

Charter revenue first pays the marina, insurance, maintenance and repairs. Whatever is left is split equally between the four partners, a quarter each. If charter income in a year does not cover the costs, the management company carries the difference.

Illustrative example only. Actual revenue and costs vary by yacht and season and are presented to the partners every year.
