Benefits of Yacht Management
Charter Destinations
Move your boat between locations if you wish to "follow the sun" and maximize your charter bookings. You can use your boat as much as you like and experience these beautiful locations while acclimating your family to the cruising lifestyle at your own pace:
Chesapeake Bay
Key West
Bahamas
Virgin Islands
St. Vincent & The Grenadines
What We Provide
We offer charter management programs in all destinations. This allows you to experience these beautiful locations with your own yacht.
Sail Away and our partners utilize your yacht to conduct charters that meet your desires. You can choose to put your vessel in bareboat charter (we only charter it out to qualified boaters) or strictly for captained / crewed charters. We can do sunset sails, corporate events, ASA sailing lessons, or even do blue water sailing courses (types of charters available may vary by location). The way in which your yacht is chartered is up to you!
In brief, the revenue on each charter is split between Sail Away (or affiliates) and the owner of the yacht (percentages vary depending on location). We manage websites and advertising, book your boat for charter, handle accounting, collect and report all taxes, and manage the schedule. We have people on-site at each base that meet with customers for briefings, clean the boat before and after charter, and organize any maintenance needs. You as the owner handle typical expenses involved with yacht ownership (dockage, insurance, and maintenance costs).
By using your boat as a business, you can take full advantage of any tax benefits. Let us put you in touch with our tax advisors who can explain the details.
Boat Service
We can help you with any of your service needs. We have contacts worldwide with boatyards capable of hauling out catamarans – so if you need to haul out – please call us! We can coordinate any job you may need done. Do you need new sails, countertops, or windows? Do you need carpentry work done, gel coat work, or solar panels installed? You don’t need to hire a lot of different contractors and take your boat to different yards – we can manage all these jobs and repairs making your life easier.
