Shared ownership in Saint-Martin
Co-own a new yacht, sail 90 days a year and leave every running cost to the management company.
Why share
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.
The structure
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.
Your time at sea
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.
The economics
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.
The comparison
Next step
Choose a yacht and get a costed simulation, visit the boat and the marina in Saint-Martin, then sign and join the capital.
