My Yacht still offers a cleaning service, professional maintenance, training, seamanship and yacht preparation, which you don’t have in case of property (benefit not included in this comparison).
With the Member’s Club you can go out with a pre-warning of 2 months while the selling process of a yacht can take years (benefit not included in this comparison).

Sailing could not be simpler: you have the key of the boat and an access card to the marina so you can always access the boat independently.

Through our software (developed by us) you can manage all your utilization: booking schedule, booking and availability control, waiting list, forum for discussion and news. Check below some pictures the software working:

You can also access this application, after having been assigned a password, through your smartphone. That way, if you could get rid of that Friday afternoon boring meeting you can do your reservation in 3 clicks!

On board you’ll have to do a brief check-in and check-out (5minutes to check-in and 3 minutes for the check-out). Before you leave you must wash the boat with water and leave it the way you found it. It is up to the West Coast the cleaning, the verification and weekly maintenance of the yacht... in order that everything is always ready to sail.

Simple, fast and flexible!

The system works with t users for each yacht. Each user benefits from the following items and usage quota:
7 outings per month on weekdays and 3 outs at weekends (“Anytime” option)
3 outings per month on weekends (“weekender” option);
7 outings per month on weekdays (“Midweeker” option);
 Unlimited last-minute (all bookings made up to 24h before the utilization are Last Minute and limitless);
All non used credits in a determined month accumulates for the following month;
In case you need extra credits on a month, you may “borrow” from the following month;
An inicial personalized training package (16 hours);
Permanent follow-up from our skippers and instructors;

This system allows you not just having the yacht at your disposal and unlimited whenever it’s not being used by anyone else and also gather your credits, for example, to have the yacht at your disposal one full week in the Algarve (with the same cost of a 1 week charter in the Algarve you may have the yacht at your disposal for 6 months!).

Additionally, West Coast organizes regularly recreational activities either with the purpose of leisure either with the purpose of training - night cruising, maneuvers or even moving the yacht to an alternative marina.

We also encourage the group of members to sail together... which obviously allows to everyone sail more time... and solves the eternal dilemma of not having experienced crew and that knows the boat.
