Default Moorings yacht management

Back in the 80's they did the same thing with motor homes, don't know if
they still do.
They make a sale, they charge you a managament fee, they charge you for lots
of maintenance, if they ever rent it, they collect a percentage. You'll
probably have to pay more for insurance since it's being rented. If you want
to use it yourself, you have to plan ahead and give them notice. Doesn't
sound like a very good deal.

Does anybody have any experience with this company? The plan is, you buy
a boat from them, they charter it out and maintain it and the proceeds
from this rental use pays for the boat and allows you a coupla months
use for yourself, plus some annual profit. Eventually, you own the boat
outright and can either continue the relationship for fun and profit or
sail away into the sunset. They advertise in Sail Magazine.
Thanks for any info.
