New for 2010, we are offering a Charter Loyalty Program, The LGC Club Program, for one time and frequent sailors on the Bay that want to get the most out of cruising the shores of this magestic waterway--the Chesapeake Bay. It applies to all of the boats in our fleet, and for certain affiliate fleets in Florida, the Bahamas and the Caribbean.
We asked your opinion about chartering and sailing courses, and you gave it!
We are organizing new courses, flotillas and procedures as a result of your input. We want to be your one souce for chartering, skills enhancement and owning a boat--privately or with our unique, Boat-As-A-Business concept. It is our pleasure to earn your business!
If you are booking for the first time, sign up for the club program ($235 lifetime membership) when you book and we will offer you all of the benefits below on your first charter--the savings are typically worth more than the cost of membership! Limited time...Take the survey above-your choice skills enhancement, or chartering and flotillas! - and we'll put your name in for a drawing for a free charter or sailing course. Drawing to be held in June.
The LGC Club Program provides several benefits.
Membership includes:
Express check in/check outs. As a member, once you've sailed a particular model boat, you may take advantage of our express check out. We provide complete operation manuals (for members) on-line and on board. We'll answer any questions you may have, but you can be underway in a matter of minutes from the time you arrive at our marina. Sign the express check in form, and you can disembark immediately on your return and we'll take care of checking the boat in for you.
If any promotion offered to the public equals the value of the Membership promotion, members get an additional 5%. (Always, 5% (minimum) greater value than any other promotion). Guaranteed best price--If any competitor offers a better price on a comparable year/equipped boat for a particular time frame--we'll match it (or beat it with our extra value) for you!
Free day, or discount--your choice. One free day on weekend charters on participating boats in the LGC fleet.(Example: Come down Thursday evening, and enjoy Friday-Sunday, or stay over Monday or use it how you want) (The free day option is worth more than the 10% discount option--but it's your choice as a member!)
Free days. Two free days on 7 day charters on participating boats in the LGC fleet-applied to beginning or end of charter--not to include second weekend. (Example: Start on Wed, instead of Friday to have an 8 day charter, or Wed-Friday--you get the idea...)
Optional 10% discount on charters of 2 days or longer. If you don't use the free day, you may elect the discount instead.
15% (Sea Dollar) credit, on every LGC charter, towards an eventual purchase, and for use in the club program as will soon be announced. If you are a member or have ever chartered with us. (You simply need to charter once every 2 years to maintain your Sea-Dollar account)
