A slice of each member’s initial investment is set aside as a working-capital reserve. This covers day-to-day costs—fuel, insurance, crew salaries—before charter and hourly fees replenish cash. The reserve also funds unexpected maintenance so we never need a capital call. Think of it as the Pod’s checking account: big enough for smooth operations, small enough not to drag returns.
When you join Craft Pod, part of your initial investment is set aside in a “working capital” reserve.
Why?
To cover everyday operating costs, like fuel, insurance, and crew salaries, before revenue from charters and hourly fees comes in.
To cover unexpected expenses, like surprise maintenance, so the Pod doesn’t have to ask you for more money later.
Think of it like the Pod’s checking account:
Big enough to keep everything running smoothly.
Small enough that it doesn’t drag down your returns.
