  • The Cooper Cruising Club

    The Cooper Cruising Club (CCC) is a fantastic option for those looking to charter more than 20 days per year. The Cruising Club offers built in savings for our best clients. With a standing acceptance of the charter terms, there is no need to complete paperwork everytime you head out on the water.

    We understand that for many, sailing someone else's yachts just doesn't compare to the pride in owning and maintaining your own yacht. Being a member of the Cooper Cruising Club before you buy makes perfect sense. It can help prospective boat owners make informed decisions before such a major purchase - determining what features, makes and models will best suit your needs. Because you can hand in the keys and get back to your life, you might actually find ownership overrated.

    The Cooper Cruising Club offers power and sailing yachts of all sizes - in fact, over 90% of the Cooper fleet is currently available to CCC members.

    What about 'yacht leasing' offerred by brokerages individuals?

    A Cooper Cruising Club membership is more flexible than traditional lease programs. The CCC allows you to sail many different types of yachts instead of only one. Your cruising dollars are redeemable on our yachts.

    What about 'yacht sharing' offered by other companies?

    Typically with yacht sharing you are restricted to one type of yacht and therefore are often competing with other people in the share for time on the boat. With the Cooper Cruising Club you have 60 late model yachts ranging in size from 25 feet to 57 feet both power AND sail!

    Are there other benefits to the being a member of the Cruising Club?

    You bet!

    • Members receive 15% off most Cooper courses.
    • One day surcharges are waived.
    • Discount insurance rates available.
    • No paperwork each time you cruise.
    • Express checkouts.

    How does the cruising club work?

    Cruising Club members purchase cruising dollars which can be redeemed for time on our yachts. One hundred cruising dollars are purchases by the club member for $80 but can be redeemed for $100 (20% discount) worth of charter time.

    Club members have three levels of membership to choose from:

    • $360 per month ($4,320 per year), affords the member $5,400 worth of charter time. For an additional $80 per month, the member enjoys day sailing club fleet privileges.
    • $500 per month ($6,000 per year), affords the member $7,500 worth of charter time and the day sailing club fleet privileges are complimentary!
    • $650 per month ($7,800 per year), affords the member $9,750 worth of charter time and the day sailing club fleet privileges are complimentary!

    We can also customize your payments to match your charter needs. Initiation for the club is currently $899.

    Can I cancel my membership at any time?

    There is no obligation to stay in the club. Club members can cancel at anytime.*

    * prior to cancellation, overdraft point credits must be cleared.
