About The Canaveral Boat Club
Carefree Boat Club of Canaveral is located at Harbortown Marina on Merritt Island. Nestled ideally on the Canaveral Barge Canal it is a short ride to the Indian River, Banana River and Port Canaveral which opens to the Atlantic Ocean. The area is an "Outstanding Florida Waterway" and one of the most biologically diverse estuaries in North America. The Indian River Logoon's brackish waters are home to more than 4300 plant and animal species. It is home to miles of beautiful scenery, restaurants, shopping and outstanding fishing.
Carefree Boat Club of Canaveral is a relaxing way to enjoy cruising, swimming, fishing and nature watching. Members can grab a waterfront lunch at one of the dozens of waterfront eateries. If bending a rod is your idea of fun, there is an endless possibility including inshore like redfish, trout and shook. The offshore fishing is spectacular providing excellent opportunity to catch pelagics like Mahi, Cobia or Sailfish as well as bottom species like snapper, grouper and amberjack. The area is home to many animals like wading birds, bottlenose dolphins and manatees so keep your camera ready, you never know what you will see! There are lots of islands to explore and more than a few to socialize at. It is hard to imagine a better boat club location.
Members enjoy a wide variety of activities on the water in top notch boats. Our knowledgeable staff is second to none and is dedicated to helping members create memorable experiences with their friends and family on the water. Carefree Boat Club of Canaveral is situated in the perfect location to access all the Space Coast has to offer(Oh, we have rockets too!).

Discover Why Others Are Trading In Their Boats For A Carefree Boat Club Membership... And Never Looking Back
"Any day any boat the boats are clean, they’re prepped, they have all the equipment we need to be safe so all we have to do is bring us".
"What an AMAZING day on the water in one of the most beautiful places to boat in FL! The dock staff were helpful, informative about locations of the springs, helped us to and from our truck with all of our bags and cooler. The boat was immaculate, fully fueled and ready to go"
"I've been a member for over a year and love it. It made more sense to pay $300-ish per month for access to numerous boats, no worries, prepped for me, cleaned for me, always running, and help when needed."
Frequently Asked Questions
What Is A Boat Club?
Carefree Boat Club is a private club. This means that our boats are only available to Members. We do not rent or charter our boats. Our members are the only ones with unlimited access to the fleet and they never pay a fee to use the boats.
Is It Truly "Unlimited?"
Yes! Members have true unlimited access to boats. Boat as much as you like.
Is It Worth The Price?
It really is. With membership as little as 1/3 cost of owning a boat, you can cross numerous expenses off your list such as: boat purchase, slip fee, insurance, maintenance, repairs, taxes, towing and winterization.
How Does The Training Work?
All members get as much training as they need on and off the water. "On The Water" training is done with a certified instructor. Training covers CBC processes, general navigation, docking and safety.
How Soon Can I Get On The Water?
After joining, new members (without boating experience) can normally be boating within days of joining. If you have previous boat training, you can be on the water even sooner.
Are The Boats Well-Maintained?
Absolutely, in fact, all boats are inspected weekly by the CBC dock staff using a 50 point checklist of safety equipment, hull condition, electronics, and general mechanical items.

"The crew at Carefree Boat Club in Canaveral is top-notch. Boats are incredibly clean-- always like new.... Staff is helpful.... and the lakes--are, of course, beautiful (and VERY peaceful mid-week--but shhh... maybe I shouldn't say that-- don't let it get out-- Fewer weekday boaters keeps it quiet for me!)"
