Fifteen minutes to plan your first Saturday on the water.

What we'll go through

• Your Saturday. Who's on board, how often you'd go out, what the day looks like from the dock back to the dock. Everything else follows from this, so it's where we start.
• The ways to get there. Owning outright, a share, a club, a charter. Each one carries a different version of that day. A member once called his “a day on a million-dollar vessel without million-dollar headaches.” We'll find the one that fits yours.
• What it takes to make it real. At the end, on one sheet: your numbers, honest and complete, for each path. For most people the answer sits closer than they expected.

What we won't do

We're not touring a boat and you're not signing anything on a fifteen-minute call. And if your Saturday is better served by a club or a charter for now, I'll tell you that, along with what would change the answer later.

What you walk away with

The sheet is yours to keep either way. Plenty of people sit with it for a month and come back with better questions. That's the point: once the day you're picturing has real numbers under it, it stops being a someday.
