Fleet

As a Fleet member, your first year requires a one-year contract that you pay monthly and is all-inclusive. There is no additional membership fee.

After your first year, your membership is automatically renewed month-to-month.

As a Fleet member, you can also rent boats outside of your membership fleet. If you take out a boat that is in the next Fleet above yours, you pay 50% of that boat's Skipper daily rate. If you take out a boat that is two or more Fleets above yours, you pay 75% of that boat's Skipper daily rate.

Skipper

Skipper memberships are also on a one year contract, but boat use is not included in the monthly fee. Your monthly fee is a $50/month club fee plus your boat usage.

Mate

As a Mate member, you can attend all club events and group sails (such as our night sails and intro to sailing) for free. You also have access to our website bulletin board for crewing opportunities.

The Mate membership costs $35 per month.

Fleet Membership Cost Examples

Example #1 - Membership comparison - If you join a Skipper Membership after taking Basic Keel Boat, your cost is $50/month X 12 months, or $600 for the year membership. Sail 8 full days over the course of the year at $160/day X 8 = $1,280 and your total sailing cost is $1,880. Join at the Bronze Fleet level after your Basic Keel Boat Class, and your year contract is $160 X 12, or $1,920, regardless of whether you sail 8 days or 80!

Example #2 - Sailing boats not in your membership fleet -- If you are a Silver Fleet member and sailed a Gold Fleet boat one Sunday during the month, that month’s payment will be your normal $275 monthly Fleet fee, plus 50% of the Gold Fleet full daily rate of $390, for a total of $275 + $195, or $470.
