What is Freedom Boat Club all about?
	Our members have all the benefits of owning their own boat but none of the cost or hassle that goes with it, which ultimately gives them more time to enjoy the water with family and friends. We own the boats and take care of everything that boat owners hate to do and pay for, including: dockage, maintenance, insurance, tax, tow service and even cleaning. Members are entitled to participate in safety classes, fishing clinics, and much more. We strive to provide a care-free alternative to boat ownership - at a fraction of the cost of owning a boat - while maintaining the highest quality of service.
How do I know there will be boats available?
	We maintain a ratio of boats to usage, so that all members will be able to get a boat every time. Our reservation system ensures that all members have equal access to the boats, plus members can make guaranteed reservations up to six months in advance. In addition we have the largest fleet of boats in South Florida to choose from.
How do I make reservations?
