Testimonials

"SailTime has given us a simple, efficient way to enjoy big boat sailing whilst rapidly building up experience and sea miles. The boats are in good condition, the system works well and the organisation impeccable." - Graham & Carole Plant, Hamble

"We have been SailTime members for 3 months. We are busy with our children and running our business. For us SailTime is ideal. We have easy access to our boat to make maximum use of our limited leisure time, the online scheduler works well. Richard and Sue keep the boat in A1 condition. For us that means more time sailing, less time dealing with boat problems" - James Wiles, Hamble

"Having sailed many times whilst on holiday, I had for some time been keen on owning a yacht of my own. However, the prospect of only being able to use it once or twice a month due to the many other calls on my recreation time meant it would be an expensive option that didn't seem to offer value for money. The only other alternative was to charter, but as I hadn't achieved Day skipper this was not possible. SailTime provided the ideal solution. I could sail a new yacht without any of the hassle of marina fees, maintenance or depreciation. What’s more, having signed up I could take my Day Skipper practical on my own boat.

As it happened both my son and I took Day Skipper and because there were just the two of us I believe we got much more from the Yachtmaster with us than would have been the case with 6 or so on board a training school boat. Our experience with SailTime has been excellent. They do just what it says in the pr material. The boats are excellent, the scheduler works well and gives everyone a fair allocation, so I can safely say there are no catches.

With spring around the corner I am really looking forward to getting lots of use out of the boat and continuing the relationship with all of the SailTime team." - Robin Chillman, Hamble

"We joined SailTime in the middle of last Summer at the novice stage of our sailing career. For us SailTime has been a brilliant way to get sailing and to gain experience. We obviously have only been able to sail with an experienced qualified friend, but it has been great fun and a terrific way to get started. It has prompted us to go ahead and qualify and we are doing our Day Skipper shore based evening class through the Winter months." - Sarah and Tim Dommett, Hamble

"I like the convenience of being able to use a well maintained and high spec boat at times which suit me, and at a known fixed monthly cost. By using the same boat each time (as opposed to charter) I can build up my skills and get a little more out of the boat each time I go out." - Nigel Jones, Hamble
