Why own a yacht in a Tahiti? This is certainly a fair question to ask. But what you should be asking yourself is, "Why not own a yacht in Tahiti?". If you are reading this blog post than it is highly probable that you have gone on a charter vacation before and the whole time you wondered why would I ever want to plan a land-based vacation again. It is the itch that scratches many of us sailors and boaters. 

  If you were the owner of your perfect yacht and you lost her to a natural disaster, what would you do? If you are Jeff and Adrienne Cone, you accept what is, pick yourselves up and find a more perfect yacht. The Cones, previously owners of a Moorings 4800, are now the proud owners of a Moorings 4500, and they are sharing their ownership story with us.

‘Tis the season for our friends in the Caribbean to have their busiest time of year, and for the yacht sales team in the United States to have a bit of a break from boat shows.  We are happy to answer questions about our Yacht Ownership Program year round, but boat show season gives us the opportunity to speak to people in person and finally put faces to the names of our clients considering their options.  One of my favorite parts of shows is when owners in our Yacht Ownership Program come by to say hi, and inevitably end up chatting with prospective owners and giving them their personal highlights and experiences in the program.  My colleagues and I can answer the detailed questions about owner use, agreements and all the fine print, but speaking with actual owners who can validate the things we explain about the program is the perfect endorsement…and owners usually end up bragging about how much fun they are having cruising at our locations worldwide!

Have you ever wanted to know more about the relationship between the two companies? Well we are going to explain to you exactly how the two brands are related in this post.

If you had to close your eyes and dream up the perfect holiday, what would it look like? If you are anything like our Yacht Sales Team your perfect holiday consists of two very important parts: the first part being a yacht and the second part being islands.

The biggest benefit to owning a yacht through a Yacht Ownership Program is your ability as an owner to sail your yacht, and sister ships, at destinations worldwide. 

If you are in search of the best charter yacht ownership program, then without a doubt you have heard the term "professional maintenance" thrown around a few times by now. At this point you have probably asked yourself, "What does this include?" 

If you are considering financing a boat through our Yacht Ownership Program, then you probably have  plenty of questions, especially if this is your first time purchasing a yacht. The Moorings has been in the business for almost 50 years and we are proud to say that we invented Charter Yacht Ownership. So it goes without saying that we know the business in and out. In addition to our 50 years of expertise, we have partners in the finance industry that we have worked with for decades who understand the way our business works. To get a bit of an understanding of how you can finance a yacht in through an ownership program we encourage your to keep reading.*

After five years of sailing in some of the world’s most beautiful cruising grounds, there comes a time in every Charter Yacht Owner‘s life when they will have to make the decision of what comes next. Goodbyes are always hard, but depending on what lies ahead, it may not be "goodbye", it may be a "see you soon".

We are pleased to announce that The Moorings (along with Leopard Catamarans) has built and sold over 100 Moorings 514PCs.
