Unlike boat clubs and fractional use companies, Elizabeth Austin Yachts offers a genuine luxury yachting experience. Luxurious in each detail and every appointment on the vessel, but also luxurious as a truly hassle-free yachting experience.
Membership covers all cost of operating, maintaining, and preparing each yacht for your arrival dockside and enjoyment on the water. Just pack you bags, some food and drink—everything else will be ready when you arrive. Or, if you prefer, order from our menu and food, snacks, and beverages will be provisioned for you.
Each member has monthly access to:
- five available weekdays
- one two-day weekend
- five available unused weekdays from previous month
- one additional weekend, upon approval from each member of the vessel
- unlimited as-available weekdays within a 24 hour window
Whether it’s on the Chesapeake or in the warmth of Miami, there is no more luxurious way to enjoy sailing and entertaining than on an Elizabeth Austin Yacht.
