Sailing Yacht Ownership

The Moorings pioneered charter yacht ownership.

The Moorings was founded in 1969 by Charlie and Ginny Cary. Charlie offered the first yacht ownership programme in 1971 in the British Virgin Islands. This was the foundation of The Moorings Yacht Ownership Program today. We now offer ownership opportunities in the Caribbean, Mediterranean, South Pacific, Indian Ocean, Mexico and The Bahamas.

Best of all, you can choose to sail your yacht or a sister ship at many of these exotic worldwide destinations. Reserving sailing time on your yacht, or sister ship, is a phone call away.

Power Yacht Ownership

We offer power catamarans ranging from 37’- 47’ in great destinations worldwide.

The Moorings power catamarans have logged tens of thousands of ocean crossing miles. They offer space comparable to that of a much larger monohull and the twin hull platform makes them more comfortable at anchor and safer at sea. The efficiency of the twin hulls dramatically reduces the fuel consumption and the standard fuel capacity allows outstanding range.

The space and privacy of the catamaran design is one of its most popular attributes. The main salon and galley are positioned on the full beam of the bridge deck which provides a very comfortable living area and panoramic views. The two separate hulls allow for superior privacy. The hull chine increases interior volume without increasing drag.

The beam of the Moorings catamaran and the absence of ballast in the keels dramatically reduces rolling at anchor or at the dock. At sea, the design of the catamaran is more stable and allows tremendous range at cruising speed.

The Moorings power catamarans offer the best combination of space, comfort, efficiency and value.

The Moorings offered the first fully integrated power yacht ownership programme with multiple destinations, guaranteed revenues, and no operating expenses. Best of all, you can choose to use your yacht or a sister ship at many worldwide destinations. Reserving cruising time on your yacht, or sister ship, is a phone call away. Book years in advance or enjoy a spur of the moment get-a-way by taking advantage of our short notice feature. Entertain clients, reward employees, or treat friends and relatives to a memorable holiday. In the event you want to organise a bigger party or try a larger yacht, take advantage of the upgrade feature of the programme.
