On the up-side, you share all the costs which means you will save a great deal of money.

I didn't know they had boat timeshares. But if they are anything like a regular timeshares I wouldn't do it. You will never get your money back out of it. And something inevitably will come up when its your week to use it.
A common experience is getting frustrated because the boat is not available when you want it. You end up living your life around the shared calendar.
