What is SailTime?
“SailTime is a global network of fractional sailing bases providing intelligent, no commitment, low cost sailing and smart ownership programs to new and seasoned sailors.
Through the use of real-time on-line scheduling and management tools, we make sailing new sailboats practical, cost-effective and easy.”
What is SailTime and how does it work?• SailTime is a way to get on the water at an
affordable and accessible price• Each of our customers – or SailTime members
joins a boat in a location in their local waterway• They can sail a minimum of seven times a month
guaranteed and unlimited as available• We have two Sail times each day – from 10.30-
6.00pm and 6.00pm-10.30am
What is SailTime and how does it work?• Members can design their own calendar and book
the boat whenever they like either from a day’s notice or up to 12 months in advance
• We offer weekend, weekday, day and evening sailing with possible reservations up to a week long
• Each boat has a maximum of eight membersand they treat the boat as though it was their own
What is SailTime and how does it work?• They make a reservation – turn up
and use the boat – clean it down and leave• It’s just like a gym or golf club membership• Members pay a one time joining fee, a refundable
security deposit and a monthly membership fee starting from $395 per month and increasing dependent upon size of the boat
• SailTime takes care of all the running fees including insurance, marina fees and maintenance
What is SailTime and how does it work?• Reservations are managed on-line through the
SailTime Scheduler – an interactive internet based booking system
Technology on board• On board each boat we also have a wireless hand-held PDA – our E-
ttendant – which we use to manage and maintain the boats• Members check on upon arrival
– Safety checks and equipment checks• Examples – is there water coming out of the engine?• Have you briefed your guests on how to use a lifejacket?• Is there any noticable damage to the boat
– Members check off upon departure• Is there more than 1/4 tank of fuel?• Have you cleaned the boat?
• This unique interactive system provides real time information to help the base effectivelymanage the fleet
Owner Member program
• In addition to our Member program we also have an ownership or Owner Member program
• An Owner member buys a boat and leases it to SailTime for 5 years
• SailTime takes care of all the operational costs including slip fees, maintenance and insurance
• The Owner Member sails the boat as a Member a minimum of seven times a month but has no fees
• After the lease term, the boat is returned to the Owner at which point he can tradeit in against a new boat and startagain, or keep the boat him/herself
Knowledge• All SailTime bases are ASA or US sailing affiliated or have a relationship
with a local sailing school• We also have two significant programs to help develop our members
skills• SailTime University
– An online interactive sail theory training program• Novice to Captain
– Allied to SailTime University we provide practical training covering ASA 101 to 106 enabling our customers to become SailTime Skippers to SailTime Commanders
– Upon Graduating as a SailTime Commander, Members are invited to join SailTime on a graduation flotilla in the BVI’s – giving them a taste and experience of sailingin a totally new and controlled environment
