Carefree Boat Club was founded in Virginia in 2002 by US veterans. Since then Carefree Boat Club has become the premier boat club operator in the US and Canada and we are continuing to grow.
Today, with nearly 150 locations across the U.S. and internationally, we’re proud to be one of the largest and most trusted names in boating memberships.
As a member, you get unlimited access to a diverse fleet of premium boats—center consoles, pontoons, cruisers, deck boats, and more. Whether you're fishing, tubing, cruising with friends, or heading to your favorite dockside restaurant, the right boat is always waiting for you.
We handle the cleaning, fueling, insurance, storage, and maintenance—so you can focus on making memories.
Every new member receives hands-on training, ensuring your safety and confidence on the water. Our 10:1 member-to-boat ratio means great availability, and with our simple online system, booking takes just a few clicks. Show up, step aboard, and go have fun!
