Why Do Members Join a Boating Country Club?

The cost of boat ownership and the amount of hassle involved in keeping it afloat are two of the reasons why previous boat owners and new boaters join our Boating Country Clubs. It's also about convenience. Member's love our valet boating service. When they arrive at the Boat Clubs, their reserved boat is clean, filled with gas, and loaded with the water toys they requested. No more cleaning, hauling or maintenance. They simply go out and enjoy their day on the water and when they're done, dock the boat and walk away. It doesn't get any easier than that!

Our Clubs also provide boating safety instruction and personalized on-water boating instruction.
