Owning your own boat can be time or cost-prohibitive. However, the RIB Shack Marine shared boat ownership programme means that you can own a boat and enjoy a minimum of 13 weeks each year on the water. We believe in keeping it simple!
Customers purchase a 25% share in their chosen boat and therefore each of our boats has four equal owners. All owners have access to their boats for 13 weeks of the year giving each owner a minimum of 1 week in every 4. Whilst contractually every owner is guaranteed their boat for 1 week in 4, the owners regularly enter into week/weekend swapping arrangements with other owners, all of which is managed by RIB Shack Marine. In addition, we regularly have owners calling up to check availability of boats outside of their schedules and in nearly all cases we find a boat that is available within the fleet.
We are based at Saxon Wharf, Southampton, and offer owners various 'home' locations for their boat in the Solent area. RSM provides full boat management services for a minimum of 3 years, with the option to extend for an additional 2, until the boat reaches 5 years old. This covers berthing/dry stacking, insurance, Sea Start breakdown assistance, engine servicing to manufacturer’s recommendations, access to MDL freedom berthing benefits and a weekly refuelling and valeting service. In addition to the boat’s upkeep, RIB Shack completely manages the administration of your boat and its availability between owners. We like to say that we look after all the time-consuming jobs which come with boat ownership so that you can jump on board and enjoy the fun side of owning your own boat.
At the end of the term, the boat or your share in the boat is sold. The net proceeds are returned to the owner(s). This makes it a very cost-effective way of owning a highly spec’d premium boat. Guaranteed 13 weeks use a year, with additional ad hoc usage at no additional cost - we’d be happy to put you in touch with our owner’s so that they can let you know their experience of how it works.
