Membership Benefits
Joining The Club costs much less than buying a boat!
Did you know it costs at least $1,000 per month to own a recreational power boat? Think about all the costs beyond your monthly principal and interest payment....there's insurance, slip rent/storage, registration, outfitting, anchorage/mooring equipment, marine electronics and regular maintenance.
The cost is not only monetary - it takes an average of two hours of your valuable time to prep the boat, then clean and maintain it after every use.
And, as you may already know, there is a severe shortage of marina slips, storage facilities and boat ramps in the Jacksonville area. More and more area residents are buying boats, but places to dock them are Slipping Away.
