Since it’s origin as a sport and pastime, boating has mainly been regarded as a sport of the rich. That changed significantly with the introduction of fiberglass in the last century. This century can point to fractional boating as a major move towards affordability. It really is that big a shift. For a fraction of the cost of ownership, sailors in our program enjoy usage much like that of an “owner” of a fine yacht.

When you compare this fractional boating to other family sports, the costs are substantially less. For a monthly cost about equal to an auto loan you can sail as much or as little as your time allows. Very little additional equipment is required and once you have completed certified lessons your monthly membership fee is the only ongoing cost. Compare this to, say, skiing or golf for a family of four! Or, even just a couple. When you stay on your boat for a night or two its like a mini vacation close to home that costs nothing additional. Hands down, this is good cheap fun! And unlike other sports which are based on scores and competition, boating, as a bonus, requires a family team to work together!
