There's a broker/charter club near us that advertises this kinda thing; they say if you purchase a new Dufour 34 and put it in the charter pool, they guarantee all of your expensive will be covered for the first 5 years, including your mortgage (up to $500 per month), moorage, maintenance, etc. They even wash and wax it on a regular basis. They only downside I see is usage, but if you are willing to just sail mid week and give them every weekend, then you'll come out ahead. They also sell used boats, like Catalina 25's, that you can purchase and leave in the charter system to help offset costs. Also....if your boat is out for the day, you can use any boat at the dock, big or small, (for about 1/2 off the regular charter rates)
