SailTime Port Stephens offers easy and affordable membership and charter options —without all the hassles, headaches, long-term commitment and expenses that are often associated with traditional boat ownership.
SailTime is a great option for people who have been thinking about buying a boat, either power or sail, but want to get a taste of what it’s all about, without all the financial commitment. Here at Soldiers Point Marina, we’ve had some members who have tried SailTime and are now boating around the world on their own vessels! Soldiers Point Marina also offers casual charters where customers can take the vessel out on their own to explore our pristine waterways, or hire a skipper to ensure you relax and savour a spectacular day on the water.
A range of monthly memberships fees, starting at $600 per month, provide you with guaranteed minimum time on the boat(s). You will pay no marina fees, no insurance, no repairs, no maintenance — just step on board and away you go.
SailTime membership is just like any other club membership, but on the water. You pay a one-time joining fee “for life” and then a monthly fee to use the equipment. All you have to do is just wipe it down when you are finished. All member have access to a dedicated private parking space and exclusive marina facilities.
