RETURN TO MEDWAY BASE PAGES

Are you looking to buy a yacht in the Medway? Then before you make that long-term decision, consider membership of SailTime Medway and avoid the hassle, expense and time commitments that ownership entails.

Membership Features

As a SailTime Member, you are guaranteed a minimum of 6 weeks sailing each year on ‘Pippin', a 34 foot Beneteau Oceanis. You make your reservations online then turn up and sail. You can book anything up to 12 months in advance, re-arrange your bookings with no penalties and have unlimited free bookings within 24 hours.

Each yacht is shared by a maximum of eight members, who are all guaranteed exclusive use during their reservation. SailTime covers the insurance, marina fees, cleaning and repairs of the yacht - all for a monthly cost of £612 that even includes the fuel you use.

Benefits Over Ownership

If you find it difficult to justify ownership because of limited leisure time, membership is a cost effective alternative of getting on the water. And unlike the long-term commitment of ownership, SailTime membership is for a minimum of just one year. Download this Excel Spreadsheet to quantify how much you could save.

Our Owner-Member Programme can provide owners with a guaranteed monthly income as well as all the benefits of SailTime membership.

Yacht Details

Pippin is presented with an extremely high level of specification, far in excess of boat builder standard packages. These include the latest electronic navigation equipment, central heating, lifejackets, life raft, dinghy and outboard engine. You can download here the outline specification.

Pippin is certified to the Maritime and Coastguard Agency codes of practice for small commercial vessels. This is your guarantee that she is well found and equipped with the appropriate safety gear, all in working order.
