Just pay a one-time entry fee and select one of our membership plans. Your local Club will have a variety of plans to match your recreational boating needs.
Get Unlimited Training from Licensed Captains
Your safety is our No. 1 concern. So we give all our members unlimited training with certified captains. And if you wish to boat in a new location, they’ll show you the waterways.
Take Any Boat Out as Often as You Wish
Reserve a boat by phone or online. Then go fishing, tubing or head to a restaurant with friends. When you’re done, just bring the boat back and pay for the fuel. We take care of everything else!

As a company the freedoms of owning a boat for entertaining our clients could not be easier than with freedom boat club. We get to have access to multiple styles of boats for a very reasonable fee, and we don’t have to worry about the maintenance costs. We could not be happier and it puts us that much more ahead of our competition when we can take a potential client out on the water and entertain them while figuring out how we can help them around their business or home.
What a great time the choices of boats to use and low monthly cost is what I love the most. All I have to worry about is when I want to go and fuel. The people help with hauling down to the boat and when your coming in to dock they help with that since it is the most stressful time. Simply couldn’t be happier.
We joined Portland FBC in 2020 during the pandemic so we could have some fun local adventures with our kids and friends. We discussed buying a boat or jet skis, and decided that FBC would give us more variety and flexibility. This is our 3rd summer on the water with FBC, and we absolutely love it. The crew is excellent, I received personal boating training which is included with the membership. The crew is always available to answer questions and give boating and navigation advice.
The pricing structure is much like a country club. You will pay a one-time entry fee and monthly dues based on the membership that you choose. Connect with the club nearest you to learn more about membership options and current promotions!
Reserving a boat has never been easier. Simply log in to your reservation dashboard and choose your desired date, vessel, and time slot.
Freedom Boat Club is truly unlimited boating. We allow up to 4 rolling reservations at any given time. Simply put – you can have 4 reservations on the books. Once you use one, you free one up. You may book up to 6 months in advance!
Number and type of boats will vary by location. Connect with the club nearest you to learn more about the local fleet.
