THE CLUB
The Sailing Club is a sailing club designed for skippers who want to enjoy the freedom of sailing with friends or family, without the costs and responsibilities of owning a boat.
By becoming a member of Nautic Squad, you gain access to a specific sailboat shared with other members who share the same love for the sea, with guaranteed monthly usage according to the boat’s availability. You can sail whenever and wherever you want, with enough time to reach secluded beaches, relax in the sun, enjoy romantic sunsets, gather friends and family for meals on board, or experience unique moments that will stay in your memory forever.
The monthly fee includes all expenses: marina fees, insurance, maintenance, cleaning, administrative and operational management, taxes, and port fees.
As a Nautic Squad member, you benefit from a range of exclusive advantages:
-
Access to a sailboat as skipper
-
Boat with a fully equipped kitchen
-
Maintenance services
-
Administrative and operational management
-
Support in your development as a skipper
-
Assistance with trip planning
-
Events and an active nautical community
Reservations are made easily through a web application, accessible via mobile phone or computer. Each day is divided into three fixed time slots: morning (9:00–1:00 pm), afternoon (2:00–6:00 pm), and evening (7:00–8:00 pm).
Members can book consecutive time slots up to the limit of their individual quota. Simply schedule, arrive at the reserved time, and enjoy.
Being a Nautic Squad member offers the same pleasure as owning your own boat: from a quick sunset sail, a Friday outing, a weekend at sea, or even a full week of adventure or relaxation — all without worries about maintenance or repairs.
It sounds like a dream, but it’s real.
Membership is limited to the sailboat’s availability.
Secure your boat and enjoy more time sailing!
BECOME A MEMBER
You must choose which type of association is the best fit for you, with the following alternatives:
Full light
6 outings per month (4 on weekdays and 2 on weekends). A more viable option for those with little time, but who don’t miss the opportunity to enjoy the sailboat on a weekday and make the most of it with family and friends on weekends.
Week light
3 outings per month on weekdays: a more affordable version than the Weekdays plan, perfect for those who have just started sailing, are unsure how much time they can dedicate, and have more free time during the week.
Weekday
6 sailing tours per month during the week: sailors love it because it offers a very affordable and longer sailing option. You can make departures during the month and you can even reserve some time to organize a cruise for a few days.
Weekend
3 sailing tours per month during the weekend. This option is perfect for the sailor who doesn't have much time to sail. This level is a good way for those who want to start sailing, without knowing how much time they have to dedicate and can only do it on weekends.
Full week
9 sailing tours per month. This level provides each member with nine guaranteed reservations per month, 6 during the week and 3 at the weekend. With this level of use, you can book the sailboat for an entire week, which during the summer could represent your dream vacation in the Algarve in a marina or sailing from port to port.
Members can book sailing times as individual or consecutive sailings up to a full week.
Team - Navigate as a team
Sailing is more pleasant as a team and having someone to help with manoeuvres is very useful, being mandatory to always have a crew member on board to help with manoeuvres.
If you prefer, we have the “TEAM” mode in which you share any of these membership levels with a friend, both of whom can be skippers and go out together or separately. This makes browsing more pleasant and allows for an even lower cost.

FAQ
How does the Nautic Squad membership work?
Nautic Squad is like a gym, but on the water and where you can invite family and friends. Pay a monthly fee, use the equipment, clean it when you're done and leave, without all the ownership, maintenance and administrative responsibilities. Nautic Squad provides an online scheduling system and an electronic check-in and check-out system that makes it easy to schedule your sailing time and also ensures that the boat is always clean and ready to go. This method is perfect for anyone wanting a smarter, more realistic way of navigating a new boat.
How many members use the boat?
Due to our different membership levels, our boats have a variable number of members. To ensure availability and exclusivity, the club limits the number of members, the usual 8 per vessel.
How does the association cost?
It depends on the size of the boat and the type of association but we would say much less than you might think.
Request a visit to review the options.
Can I try the sailboat?
Sure! Just call to schedule a visit.
What is the duration of the commitment?
Contracts last for 12 months
Are there maintenance fees not included?
No, but if you lose equipment or damage the boat, you will have to pay for the replacement or repair up to the insurance deductible. If you need extra services, ask for the cost.
Can 2 people share the same boat?
Yes. We offer a team membership model that allows you to share a boat with a friend. At all times, at least one of the members must be on board, and the boat cannot be lent to third parties.
How long is an exit period?
Every day is divided into three periods: 9 am to 1 pm, 2 pm to 6 pm and from 7 pm to 8 am the following morning. You can schedule one period at a time or combine several for a multi-day trip.
Can I spend the night on the boat?
Yes, as long as you book the night period from 7 pm to 8 am the following day.
Who is responsible for cleaning the boat?
At the end of each use, it is the member's obligation to clean the sailboat and remove the rubbish so that it is available for the next use. At the beginning of an outing, you must CHECK-IN the application, indicating the state in which you found the vessel and CHECK-OUT when finished, indicating the events and possible maintenance needs. CHECK-IN helps hold individual members accountable by reporting the condition of the boat as they board and disembark.
What are the requirements to be a member of Nautic Squad?
All members must have a "Patrão Local" sailing license and a sailing course or experience equivalent to an RYA DAY SKIPPER.
Can I use it beyond my slot?
Sure! Each member is entitled to unlimited use as long as the vessel is available. You can book 24 hours in advance at no extra cost. This sounds too good to be true! Nautic Squad invested a lot of time, effort and technology in creating a program that opens the world of sailing to many people who, even enjoying it, had no opportunity to develop their experience. Let's hope you try it!
How are abusive behaviors managed?
Like any club, we have regulations that provide for the exclusion of members who abuse Nautic Squad’s policies and harm other members. Our priority is mutual respect among members and ensuring the availability of the boats for the next members. We value a friendly and collaborative environment for everyone.
It's time to sail the whole year,
without drowning all month.
