Benefits
PowerTime Ownership Vs. Traditional Ownership
The Difference
Better than traditional ownership
Our boat owners don’t see sharing their boat as a trade-off, but rather an enhancement. They still go boating as much as they normally would, and get the benefits of professional management and regular income on their investment.
We Take Care of the Dirty Work
When you buy a boat with PowerTime, you have a professional partner who will take care of your precious asset for you. You know your assumed expenses ahead of time and are not blindsided by the small nickel-and-dime costs that every boat owner knows all too well. We just handle that as part of our management.
The only stipulation is that you have to be willing to share. We take care of everything else. Many Owners tell us, we take care of their boat for them better than they would for themselves!
