HISTORY

Founder Josh Linkner and members of our Exclusive Yachts executive team were brought together by a love for experiences on the water and a desire to share that joy with people around the world.

As an avid and repeat charterer, Josh—a serial entrepreneur and venture capitalist—saw an opportunity to bring the joys of yachting to a larger audience. A fractional yacht owner himself, he recognized opportunities for owner-members to exchange usage rights for their yachts, allowing them to maximize the value of their yachting assets through the utilization of otherwise idle vessels.

Together, our EY founding executives and investors are on a quest to take an innovative approach to yachting in order to maximize convenience, value, and enjoyment.

Values are our core, innovation is our way, enabling customer delight is our mission, and yachting is our passion. Simply put, we deliver Yachting. Smarter.

our

VISION

We embody and cultivate muditā, which is to find joy in others’ happiness and success.

Our vision is to transform the world of yachting, making extraordinary at-sea experiences more accessible, convenient, reliable, and affordable for more people. We aim to become the global leader in yacht membership programs, serving thousands of families and businesses and helping them create indelible memories through our innovative alternative to yacht ownership and ad-hoc chartering.

Delivering Yachting. Smarter. means removing the pain points, hassles, and expense of yachting in order to maximize our members’ time and enjoyment at sea.
