Information for Joining Boats
Let us help you re-launch your sailing business, so you can get back to what you love on the big blue.
Many boat-owners and skippers have to manage the whole promotion and bookings side of their operation, leaving less time to enjoy the parts of the business they love. VentureSail is a new kind of agency specifically tailored to busy boat-owners like you. We combine the expertise of leading marketing professionals with the insight and experience of real boat-owners to offer an effective, all-round service.
Your vessel will gain the visibility of being on an engaging, browsable online showcase. We’ll handle your bookings through a powerful, easily accessible digital platform. And we’ll boost your business by providing strategic marketing advice and professional, well-informed promotion of your sailing holidays.
Come on board and relaunch your sailing business – and get back to doing what you enjoy most.

Rates and Contracts
Our vessels sign up on a rolling contract basis, so each month your contract will renew. A six months notice period is required for us to stop marketing your voyages, but the vessel owner must honour all bookings made during the contract term. Multi agency options can only operate on a allocated number of berths basis, not on a whole voyage basis where other agents are selling the same space alongside us.
