How Club Ownership Works
With Sunchaser Owners' Club you own "yacht weeks" for a period of five years. There are a limited number of Personal Allocation Cards (PACs®) for each yacht, keeping the ownership exclusive. PACs® are designed to offer a variety of seasons and destinations in the world's most beautiful cruising grounds. You can choose the one that suits you, on a first-come, first-served basis. Your chosen PAC® shows the weeks and destinations you have purchased for your term of ownership. Flexible Club rules allow you to swap or charter out your weeks if necessary at a later date - we are not aware of any other scheme that offers owners comparable flexibility! You make one payment for your Club ownership and there is nothing else to pay for five years.

How Much does it Cost?
You can choose from Platinum, Gold or Silver PACs® depending on whether you prefer high, mid or low season occupancy. Prices currently range between £38,000 and £33,000 for a minimum of ten weeks over a five-year term (prices are subject to change without notice). You have the option to use the services of the yacht's resident skipper at subsidised rates and there is a host of extras designed to enhance your ownership experience. There are no maintenance fees and no service charges. Such ease and simplicity makes our ownership totally unique!

Cost Comparisons
In simple maths the total cost of an average Club ownership equals roughly £3,500 per week! No matter how hard you look you won't find a more cost-effective way to sail in a luxury yacht. Chartering the same yacht would cost you from £5,000 per week upwards and you will be hard pressed to find one with such exclusive specification. This price diferrential means that should you invite paying guests to share the boat with you or were you to charter out your weeks through the club you would recoup your costs and even make a profit! If you are thinking of owning the boat outright then costs really escalate! The following two pages show how costs compare.

Is it for You?
Here are a few examples of client profiles for whom Club ownership is ideal: If you regularly charter yachts 45 feet and over you will benefit by sailing a more luxurious yacht that offers considerably better value. Typical costs are 30% cheaper than chartering a similar yacht. If you love the advantages of luxury yacht ownership (exclusive holidays, entertaining private or business guests etc.) but dislike the commitment involved, Sunchaser Owners' Club is an excellent alternative. We shoulder all the responsibility and running costs leaving you free to enjoy only the best part of ownership: the time you spend onboard the yacht. Finally, if you are thinking of becoming a yacht owner you can test the water without a huge outlay of capital and with maximum flexibility, while you get the chance to try out a variety of locations.
