Welcome to Freedom Boat Club – Boating Made Simple® Freedom Boat Club was first founded in 1989 in Sarasota, FL. It is the oldest and largest boat club in the nation. The vision and purpose in establishing the boat club model was simple and straightforward - to deliver a hassle-free recreational boating experience for its members.
Jake has been so wonderful to work with at Freedom Boat Club. This is our first boating season with the club and prior to joining, our biggest hesitation was that the boats would always be booked when we wanted to go out. This couldn't be further from the truth. As a family coming from out of town without access to a personal boat slip; this has been the perfect, no-maintenance option for us. We have had access to boats every time we've wanted, and Jake and staff have been extremely accommodating. Many times we've changed plans or wanted to arrive later or keep the boat longer and Jake is always quick to reply and does all he can to accommodate us. I would highly recommend Freedom Boat Club to anyone who loves to be out on the water without the maintenance and hassle of owning your own boat!
Freedom Boat Club is a great way to experience the lake with no worries! This year will be our third year in the boat club and it has worked well entertaining our family and friends. The app is very user friendly to book or change your boat reservation. Jake is a great communicator and always willing to help you. It’s nice to dock it and have no worries!
We love the boat club and have been members for several years . Jake keeps his boats clean , gassed up and ready to go. I highly recommend this club and the options of other locations is such a huge benefit for us .
I can't say enough great things about this company! The simple fact, I'm not a mechanically inclined person. Owning a boat would be a nightmare for me. Besides, why pay to store, winterize, dock and maintain a boat? It's WAY better to reserve one, hop on it for 4 hours, then go home without any hassle. Can you give a company 6 stars?!?!

Buying a boat from Freedom Boat Club Northern Iowa in Clear Lake, Iowa? Use this guide to evaluate any listing before you commit.
Match the boat to your waters
Pontoons and deck boats suit calm lakes. Deep-V hulls handle chop on larger lakes and coastal water. Center consoles are versatile for fishing. Ask Freedom Boat Club Northern Iowa which models suit the waterways near Clear Lake, Iowa.
Inspect the hull carefully
Look for stress cracks, blistering, or repairs on fiberglass hulls. Check the transom for soft spots by pressing firmly — a solid transom feels rigid. Osmotic blistering costs thousands to repair.
Check engine hours
Inboard and outboard engines are typically rated to 1,500–3,000 hours. Low-hour engines with service records are worth more. Ask to see oil change and winterization records for any boat at Freedom Boat Club Northern Iowa.
Request a sea trial
Test the boat on the water before buying. Run it at full throttle. Listen for unusual noises. Check that the throttle and steering respond smoothly. Reputable dealers like Freedom Boat Club Northern Iowa will accommodate this request.
Verify title and registration
Ask for the current title and confirm the hull identification number (HIN) matches. Check for any liens with your state boating agency. Freedom Boat Club Northern Iowa should be able to walk you through the paperwork.
