With TimeShare Sailing, your monthly fee is often lower than a single day's charter or marina slip fees. You pay one flat rate to sail as often as most boat owners. Members enjoy luxury JBoats performance or Beneteau luxury yachts, shared among a limited group, ensuring flexible and frequent access. Reservations can be made instantly or planned up to a year ahead using our online calendar.

TimeShare Sailing offers a new, economical way for aspiring captains to easily access boats. We've redefined the traditional bareboat charter model for today's sailors.

This is How it Works:

A sailboat is shared by a few Members and one Owner Member, with each guaranteed 7 sails per month. The monthly fee equals the cost of one daysail. Members use a shared Google Calendar to book sails instantly, with no approval needed. You can reserve sails minutes before or plan up to a year in advance, and communicate or swap bookings with other members.

TimeShare Sailing offers an affordable alternative to traditional boat ownership. Most boat owners use their sailboats 2-3 times a month, but face high costs such as $700-$1200 in slip fees, $1500-$2500 in loan payments, plus maintenance, insurance, and more. Many members join after frustrations with sailing clubs that offer poorly maintained boats and limited overnight options.

With TimeShare Sailing, you enjoy the benefits of boat ownership without the hassle. Share access to a new sailboat, split the expenses, and enjoy guaranteed sailing time each month. We cover insurance, marina fees, cleaning, and repairs, all for a fixed monthly rate, often cheaper than chartering or slip fees. No long-term commitment—just point, click, and sail!

Want to sail a beautiful new boat without the hassle of ownership? With TimeShare Sailing, you can! Enjoy flexible sailing options—whether for a morning, weekend, or week—at a fraction of the cost of owning or even chartering a boat. No maintenance, slip fees, or long-term commitments. Our online scheduling system makes it easy, and our staff ensures the boat is always ready for your next adventure. Sail, enjoy, and upgrade when you're ready!

"My wife and I have been in the Valkyrie (Beneteau Oceanis 37) Spinnaker Sailing partnership since December 2019. Drew asked me to reach out and share thoughts on my satisfaction with the Spinnaker Sailing timeshare program.

In short, we are extremely satisfied and the partnership has exceeded our expectations in all regards. The thing I would call out, in particular, is the high standard of seamanship to which Drew and Garett maintains the boat. Also, any time we needed support from them, they've been responsive and quickly sorted things out. The 3-day onboarding program is very valuable and allowed my wife and I to take the boat out confidently from the get go.

In the past, I've been an equity and non-equity partner (50%) in non-professionally managed sailboats (San Francisco and Cape Town) and belonged to Club Nautique (Sausalito). This Spinnaker program is a much better option, in my mind, for someone who sails twice a month or more, on average.

We moved from SOMA to Sausalito a year ago and would rather stay in the Spinnaker partnership than consider something closer to us, for the reasons mentioned above."

"My name is Ryan and I’ve been a Spinnaker Sailing Timeshare Member on the Valkyrie (Beneteau 38) for the last year. Drew asked me to share a few words about my experience so far.

So prior to becoming a member I had done a number of charters around the world BVI’s, Boston, Bahamas and the San Juan islands and wanted to find a way to enjoy the activity and lifestyle of chartering a boat a little more frequently and closer to home. I am a ways from retirement so owning just didn’t make sense at this stage. I had explored a number of the local clubs but wanted something that felt a little more like owning my own boat than what their more social/learning based programs offered or allowed for. The Spinnaker Sailing Timeshare program could not be better tailored to my personal or families needs at this time. In my opinion it provides all the personal access I could ever hope to squeeze into a months time for a small fraction of the price to own and maintain my own boat. Not to mention it’s in a convenient and premier part of the city where you are a brief motor away from the best sailing and nautical activities the Bay has to offer. My son’s and I have also thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to do overnights which is not something any of the other clubs permitted. In addition Drew and the Spinnaker Sailing crew have been exceptionally responsive, professional and helpful every step of the way. I honestly could not be more pleased with my experience this first year.

This may be more than you needed to know but if you have any specific questions or concerns I did not address I am more than happy to respond to those directly and candidly as well."
