Membership

PowerTime offers a diverse range of powerboats to fit your cruising lifestyle.

How It WOrks

Fractional MEmbership

You, as a member, will select a particular boat to join, based on size, price, and availability. This will now be your boat for the next year, almost as if you owned it, but without the same expenses of ownership.

After training and boat orientation, you’re ready to start booking usage via the web-based scheduler. No maintenance, slip rent, insurance, and property tax to worry about… simply enjoy the boat and top off the fuel tanks, and you’re done!

What We Offer

Easy, Hassle-free membership

Each boat has a maximum of 8 equivalent memberships, which distributes the available time equally among members. You simply use the web-based calendar to select the times you want to use the boat, and it will be ready when you arrive. Once at the marina, you will inspect the boat using the automated “Embark” system and then set off to enjoy the day. Upon return, simple refuel the tanks, complete the “Embark” check off, and we’ll see you next time!
