Flexisail... A truly flexible approach

If outright boat ownership is not for you, for whatever reason, then other options are available to get you on the water such as the boat clubs that are springing up for motorboats or yacht charter programmes available both in the UK and abroad. One model that particularly catches our eye and might be of interest is FlexiSail’s offering for sailing yachts, based here in the UK.

Put simply the FlexiSail model involves either Ownership or Membership. An owner buys a yacht which is put into the FlexiSail fleet where she is shared with no more than a handful of regular members, the same members throughout the year. The FlexiSail “Ownership with Income” model has a lot of appeal.

Ownership

For the owner of the boat the benefits are very significant:

Guaranteed net income of 4% of the boats all up purchase price, all summer use with no loss of income

A small number of known vetted users of your yacht who treat your yacht as their own

Professional management with exceptionally high maintenance standards

All running costs covered including berthing and insurance as part of the ownership package worth up to £30,000 per year

An extensive fun social aspect with other FlexiSail owners and members

Membership

For the FlexiSail Member the benefits are also very attractive:

You have a true fixed cost sailing for less than the cost of berthing

RYA training is available, bespoke and taken on ‘your own’ yacht in your own time. You can build your own experience, knowledge, and qualifications before, perhaps, buying your own boat

There is an extensive social programme of events which are family inclusive, adding another dimension to your sailing

You only have a 12 month commitment

You can spend your leisure time sailing and not managing and maintaining your yacht
