Understanding the model
Making Boating
Accessible
We have built a model which is simple and can be tailored to meet your budget. There are three main components. First, a membership entry fee, this gets you the vessel and proper training on how to operate it effectively. Next, a monthly fee covering all operating expenses other than fuel and lastly, a payout fee at the end of your 5-year term based on how well you and your fellow members have cared for the boat. The better it looks, the more you will get back.

The Common Questions, Answered
How does the ownership scheme work
The Aussie Boat Club owns the asset, but you own the right to use it for a portion of the year. There will be an initial buy in to give you access to owning a share in your desired boat as well as a monthly fee which covers all operating costs other than fuel.
Depending on your goals there will be a up to 4 other people who own the remaining shares in your boat.
How often do I get to use my boat?
Over the 5-year contract period you get to use your boat for 470 days, which comes out to 94 days a year. Plenty of opportunity to make the most of your investment.
Do you provide training?
Absolutely! Once you sign onto a boat, you will get access to our online training portal which will take you through all of the things you need to know to be safe, comfortable and have fun on your boat out on the water. After that, our instructors will run you through an in-person session out on the water to make sure you have everything covered.
Can I sell my share if circumstances change?
Need to sell your share? No worries, we understand that sometimes things happen, and situations change.
Our team will work with you to make sure the transition is as smooth as possible. We will advertise your share of the boat to our network and reach out to our waitlist, so you don't need to worry about anything.
