Visitors and residents alike come to California’s coastal towns to enjoy plenty of rest and relaxation, and enjoy the ocean, beaches, and all year-round fun activities of the West Coast. For those who come to the coast for its vibrant boating environment, you can make your trip that much easier when you join a boat club in Newport Beach. Vacation is about relaxation – and convenience – so having all of your boating needs met in one place will make your boating adventure in Newport Beach one to remember!
Cost
When you own, the monetary and time costs are a big part of boat ownership. Everything from licensing and insurance to regular maintenance and repair are your costs. Added up monthly, annually, or on another measure, ownership is expensive. Storing it yourself, or renting a slip in a private marina, costs time and money as well. Our one-time up-front fee, and a flat annual fee thereafter with Carefree Boat Club eliminates the worry and cost associated with owning and storing a vessel.
Education and Safety
When you purchase your own vessel, that purchase likely doesn’t come with education and safety training. Boat retailers don’t require you to demonstrate knowledge or show a safety permit before handing you the keys or at delivery. As part of your membership, the team at our Newport Beach location gladly pass on their know-how and safety information, so you can boat the waters of Newport Beach and the surrounding area safely.
From backing out of the marina slip to your adventure at sea and pulling back into the slip at the end of the day, they’ll walk you through all the basics. State or local laws also require operators of a certain age to hold a boating certificate prior to operating the vessel. If necessary, you’ll need to obtain those personal licenses – and our staff can help get you squared away!
Immediate Access
Many marinas and private slips require reservations weeks or months in advance. Renting the boat can take time and effort as well. When you join a boat club in Newport Beach, you’ll have a boat and a dedicated slip for the duration of your vacation. Your boat will be exactly where you left it, day in and day out.
Not only will you have immediate access, making reservations is simple and quick. Rent from our wide variety of boats with just a few clicks on our website. You can even make your reservation with us just a day or two before your estimated arrival!
Storage and Transportation
Cost and convenience are two major questions when it comes to storage. While storing your boat in your home garage may seem simple and cost-effective, you still have to hook it up and transport it to the site of your next adventure. You may look into renting a slip at the local marina, only to be the next name on an over-a-year-long waiting list.
Avoid both situations when you join Carefree Boat Club at our Newport Beach location. It eliminates the hassle of transporting the vessel, as well as the worry about storing it safely and securely.
The Best of the Best
Members of Carefree Boat Club can be rest assured each vessel is safe, well-maintained, and up to date to the latest standards and boating technology. Members have access to the best of the best whenever they board one of our boats. Your membership fee goes toward maintaining our current fleet to safe, clean, and proper working condition when you arrive, as well as toward the purchase of the best and newest boats and technology the industry has to offer.
A Boat for Every Occasion
Buying a boat is a multi-year commitment. Like an automobile, the high price tag means you’ll likely be holding on to the vessel for quite some time. You’ll be using it for all sorts of purposes, some of which may not be easily accomplished on certain types of vessels. Imagine the awkwardness of fishing from a powerboat or trying to water ski behind a fishing boat.
With a Carefree Boat Club membership, no matter if your favorite vessel is a sailboat, powerboat, or fishing boat, you’ll always have the right one for your next boating adventure. If you feel “the need for speed” on Friday but want a lazy Sunday featuring a sail or fishing excursion, your membership allows you to make the change quickly and problem-free. A large fleet of all types of boats at our Newport Beach club gives you access to the vessel that suits your needs whenever you need it.
