Fleet Access vs. Equity in a Dedicated Yacht

Boat clubs and fractional yacht ownership both provide alternatives to buying and operating a yacht alone, but they are different products. Boat clubs generally provide membership access to a fleet. The Nautius offer is positioned as a 49% corporate equity-based ownership opportunity centered on one dedicated Beneteau GT49.

The models differ in vessel access, overnight use, captain support, monthly access, tax treatment, and equity exit structure.

Boat-club members typically access available boats under club reservation rules. Nautius is positioned around an equity-based ownership interest centered on one dedicated 50-foot yacht.
