Making Memories with Freedom Boat Club
What is it about kids and water? Most kids just love to play in the water, whether it’s the local pop jets, the community swimming pool, or splashing around in the kitchen sink while “doing dishes,” so nothing beats the opportunity to spend a day on the lake. Having your own family boat to make memories would be amazing, but if you’re anything like me, you are not looking for one more thing to manage, clean, or maintain. Well, now there’s a much better option in north Alabama…Freedom Boat Club.
Freedom Boat Club is the oldest and largest boat club in the world, with over 400 locations and nearly 100,000 members, and we’re thrilled that their newest location just opened at the beautiful City Harbor complex at Lake Guntersville. Less than an hour from Huntsville, Freedom Boat Club of North Alabama offers hassle-free boating to its members – you book a reservation online, show up with your swimsuits and sunscreen, jump on a boat, and enjoy the day! It’s really that easy. Through the subscription-based model, the club owns, maintains, insures, cleans, and stores the boats for you, so it’s truly an “arrive and drive” experience.
Like most clubs, members pay a one-time initiation fee when they join, followed by monthly dues. Freedom Boat Club offers multiple membership options to fit your
budget, there’s no long-term contract, and you can cancel anytime.
Membership in this club definitely has its privileges! In addition to unlimited access to the local fleet of brand-new tritoons, bowriders, and fishing boats, members also receive reciprocal access to boats at the other 400+ locations across the US, Canada, Europe, and Australia. Got a trip booked to the beach? Reserve a boat at one of the dozens of Freedom Boat Club locations on the Alabama coast and Florida for free. Planning to visit family in Michigan this summer? Enjoy a boat ride on Lake
Michigan as a member with all the same benefits as your local club.
One of the things I also love about Freedom Boat Club is they are actively working to break down barriers to boating for women – nearly 35% of their members are
female boaters. When a member joins, she receives unlimited free training – both on and off the water – to ensure that she feels confident and safe at the helm. And
there’s no worry about maintenance, repairs, winterization, or storage – they handle all the headaches while you have all the fun!
Freedom Boat Club of North Alabama offers a unique way for families to enjoy time together close to home but away from the daily distractions of emails, video
games, and household chores. Get in touch with them today by calling (256) 202-4469 by submitting your information online at www.freedomboatclub.com/n-alabama, or simply visit them at City Harbor marina at Lake Guntersville.
