Having 16 Oceanis 37s means I can always get a boat when I want it and it’s pretty much the same set up regardless. I signed up almost immediately and paid the upfront annual fee as the extra points awarded for paying up front seemed silly to miss out on.

FAQs
No, you can start your membership as a complete novice and book a professional skipper to assist you in building up your experience. You can also spend your points on RYA courses and bespoke training.
With up to 40% off the amount of points a day’s sailing costs varies depending on the time of year. Short notice bookings also benefit from lower rates, but are subject to availability. You can therefore plan your year’s sailing around your schedule and also enjoy heavily discounted rates at certain times of the year. If you spend all your points on last minute sailing you can enjoy more than 40 days sailing each year.
Simply top up you points by making an additional payment.
Because there are various ways to spend your points, we would hope you don’t have to ask this question. However if you find yourself with excess points at the end of your contract then you can apply for 6-month roll over. All applications are at the discretion of the management.
