Can I sleep aboard?
Yes of course since the vessel allows it and you have booked the vessel for the night periodYou must always be aware the time of arrival and remember that:
The vessel exchange is always done in the base marina, except when there are special activities done by West Coast Base marina costs are always included in the monthly payment however costs beyond the base marina are born by the user. For example, if you’re going to spend 2 days in the Marina of Cascais, the costs have to be born by you as if it was your vessel; Whenever you sleep aboard it´s mandatory to use sheets over the beds. You may use your own bedding or request us to place them (additional costs).
Can I borrow the vessel to a friend?
No. The subscriber is always responsible and must always be on board.
You may however subscribe the Duo option that allows you to share a usage quota with a friend, sailing together or independently.
Yet you can never borrow the vessel to friends. Violating this rule is one of the reasons to exclude from the club because it is a very important issue and concerns to the responsibility of each one on board.
Contact us to get more information about the “Duo Option” and how you can share a set of credits with a friend.

Can I accumulate credits for the next month?
Yes you can accumulate what you didn’t use one month forward.
A similar system to the minutes packages on the mobile phones tariffs - what you didn’t use the actual month can be used on the next.
However, if you don’t use this credits on the following month of the month which they belong are given as lost. Your account accumulates automatically this availabilities and you can check them and book them at any time.
When you do your bookings the system allows you to choose which credits you’re going to use, giving you the option to use the credits from the previous month to accumulate with the credits of the actual month.

How many people can I take on board?
To the maximum capacity of the vessel.For example the capacity of the Bavaria 32 cruiser is 6 people so you invite up to 5 passengers for your outing. Just like you would do on your own vessel.
We emphasize yet that it’s not allowed to navigate alone and at night during the first year of subscription of the Member’s Club and West Coast has the right to keep this restriction according to the capacities of each sailor.
That’s why it’s so important to assure that you have a crew and in case you need one we can help requesting crew to our sailing school community that can be a great help.
Quem Controla as Reservas?
There is yet no translation available for this page. Please contact us for further information. Our sincere appologies the inconvenience.
O sistema (software de marcações) é totalmente autónomo - pode aceder a qualquer hora do dia 365 dias por ano.As regras de funcionamento estão no sistema pelo que este controla e regista os créditos de cada membro. Sempre que fizer uma marcação receberá também um email de confirmação na sua caixa de correio.
Mas o nosso escritório controla e re-confirma diariamente todas as reservas e entra em contacto consigo sempre que for necessário pois recebemos avisos automáticos sempre que há uma marcação ou cancelamento. Isto assegura-lhe também que o veleiro estará impecável quando o for utilizar.
Em caso de falha do software poderá fazer a sua reserva pelo telefone (nunca aconteceu até hoje!) para que nunca deixe de poder velejar.
