WindPath Sailing of Cape Cod Launches
"WindPath's program opens the door for people who have wanted to get out on the water, but have hesitated because of financial or other burdens associated with owning a sailing yacht." said Ian Treibick, president and founder of WindPath Sailing, Inc..
Mark Barrett, WindPath Sailing of Cape Cod base manager explained, “Owning a sailboat requires large personal and financial commitments that many would be sailors are not ready to make. WindPath removes all of the usual obligations associated with yacht ownership and allows members to enjoy their time on the water with friends and family.”
“Many of WindPath's Members can afford their own boat, but they’ve chosen to allow us to deal with all the headaches associated with ownership.” Barrett added.
WindPath's innovative program enables Members to sail or relax on a brand new Catalina yacht a minimum of seven times per month. Members may choose a monthly or annual fee that is usually less than the cost of the marina slip alone. WindPath handles all aspects of maintenance, scheduling and refueling, as well as offering a comprehensive training program for new or inexperienced sailors.
Members schedule time slots via WindPath's proprietary, real-time online scheduling software. They can reserve time slots instantly and book future trips up to 12 months in advance.
All of WindPath's Catalinas are fully loaded with the options buyers and members desire the most. Some features of a typical yacht include in-mast furling system, electric anchor windlass, destroyer style steering wheel with auto pilot, extensive navigation pack – with GPS chart plotter and radar, dodger linked to bimini, electric flush head system, stereo with CD player and flat screen television with DVD player.
WindPath of Cape Cod’s fleet is based on the Catalina line of 30-50 foot yachts. The first yacht, a 2006 Catalina 350, will be christened �Emily� at Red Brook Harbor, Cape Cod in March 2006. Plans to introduce memberships in other Cape Cod locations as well as Nantucket and Martha�s Vineyard are also in the works.
