YACHT OWNERSHIP BE A PART OF OUR HISTORY! About us /1
Founded on July 4, 1969, The Moorings started with only six Pearson 35 yachts located in the BVI. 50 years later, The Moorings has revolutionized the charter industry, as well as ownership options within charter programmes. The company now boasts a large number of monohull models from best-selling manufacturer, Group Beneteau. For catamarans the Moorings offers the largest fleet of Leopard Catamarans built by world-renowned builder Robertson & Caine, which is now building exclusively for The Moorings, Sunsail and Leopard Catamarans. www.mooringsyachtownership.co.uk | [email protected]
Sunsail started as a small dinghy sailing school in Emsworth, in the south of England. In 1974, the pioneering yachting brand was formed, offering adventure travel initially from Greece, but quickly expanding around the wider Mediterranean and rest of the world. It is perfect for those who have a passion for new and exciting experiences. Sunsail originally built and operated its own yachts, but today enjoys a long standing relationship with Jeanneau for Monohulls and Leopard for Catamarans. Sunsail invented flotilla sailing holidays and these compliment many of the bareboat charter locations. Sunsail also offers sailing schools and corporate events setting it apart from its competitors. www.sunsailyachtownership.co.uk | [email protected] FACTS & NUMBERS /3 approx. approx.

The Partnership
In 1985, Group Beneteau, now the largest yacht building group in the world, began a relationship with The Moorings.
For more than 30 years, the relationship between the two companies has grown, and The Moorings has consistently been one of the top customer of Group Beneteau.
Size of boats available: 34 to 51 feet Monohulls OUR BASES IT´S ALL ABOUT QUALITY Your Boat /17
By far, there are no other sailing vacation companies with greater value than both The Moorings and Sunsail. All of our bases are staffed with employees trained to the highest of standards in customer service and technical expertise for maintenance and upkeep of the yachts.
Identical specifications of each yacht allows for maintaining interchangeable parts for various yacht models. Spare parts inventory at the different bases allows for efficient and timely maintenance of all yachts.
To attest to the newness of the yachts used in each programme, the majority of both Moorings and Sunsail yachts are operated for a maximum of 6 seasons with only limited numbers of yachts extended longer.
Almost all of the yachts are individually owned and this obligation to the owners results in a highly maintained yacht at all times. MEDITERRANEAN SEA Marina Agana Primosten Split Rogoznica ŠOLTA Trogir Maslinica KROATIEN /19 Agana BRAC Dubrovnik
