Chartering programs offered by The Moorings and Sunsail allow individuals to purchase new sailboats that the companies then operate as rental vessels for five years.0:46 Owners receive guaranteed monthly revenue, typically calculated at 8% of the purchase price, which covers maintenance, docking, haul-outs, and insurance.4:16 Participants gain 12 weeks of annual usage on their own vessel or sister ships at global locations.1:52 However, the program requires a significant down payment, often 25% of the purchase price, and involves long-term financing of 15 to 20 years.4:04 Upon exiting the five-year contract, owners often face high engine and generator hours, significant cosmetic wear, and basic equipment configurations lacking luxury upgrades or extensive off-grid capabilities.5:41 Because charter companies select the boat models and specifications, owners may inherit layouts designed for high-capacity rental rather than private use.4:42 Financial viability generally depends on whether the owner already spends heavily on annual charter vacations, as the program effectively offsets those costs rather than generating profit.6:41
