Accelerate Your Dreams with Charter-Ownership
Why put your boat in the Windworks Charter Club?
Clients of Windworks Yacht Sales can place their yacht in charter with Windworks Sailing & Powerboating, the premier sailing charter company in the Pacific Northwest. Placing a boat in charter is an excellent way to reduce ownership costs and allows you to generate revenue when you’re not using your yacht.
When a yacht is in charter with Windworks Sailing & Powerboating, Windworks staff perform regular maintenance and marketing for your yacht. Qualified skippers who have completed U.S. Sailing or U.S. Powerboating instructional courses then pay to charter your yacht when you’re not using it. Skippers are responsible and fully insured for any accidents or damage that could occur to give yacht owners peace of mind.
Placing your yacht in charter accelerates the path to yacht ownership and can also create a business expense which can provide additional benefits for business owners.
