Fractional Sailing Membership
Experience the Freedom of Fractional Sailing Yacht Memberships in Marina del Rey
At Naos Yachts, we make it simple and accessible to enjoy the freedom of sailing without the cost or complexity of owning a boat outright. Our fractional sailing membership program — powered by SailTime — brings you all the joy of boating with none of the burdens. This exclusive model of fractional sailing yacht memberships provides year-round access to our premium fleet in Marina del Rey, offering a modern, flexible, and cost-effective way to experience life on the water.
Welcome to a Hassle-Free Boating Lifestyle
Fractional boat membership is a simple, modern alternative to boat ownership. Instead of purchasing a vessel, you share access to one with a select group of other members. This model allows you to enjoy premium boating experiences at a fraction of the cost, while your monthly membership covers everything required to keep the yacht ready for your next adventure.
You get all the freedom of boating with none of the headaches of upkeep, storage, or depreciation. No cleaning. No hauling. No boatyard surprises. Just seamless, consistent access to a beautiful boat in one of Southern California's premier waterways. It's the ideal model for new sailors, busy professionals, or anyone who wants the comfort and consistency of using the same boat all season long without long-term ownership commitments.
A Private, Member-Only Sailing Club in Marina del Rey
Naos Yachts operates as a private sailing club designed for boaters who want more time on the water and less time worrying about maintenance, storage, and logistics. Our fractional sailing program is exclusive to members, ensuring a refined, community-oriented experience where every detail is handled for you.
Your membership grants access not only to a dedicated boat but also to a club culture built around passion, education, and adventure. From members-only events to personalized support from our professional staff, we've created an environment where every outing feels special and every sailor feels like part of a close-knit community.

What is included in the monthly membership fee?
