Support, opportunity & affirmation like no other
So, why choose Nautical Boat Clubs? Yes, there are other boat-club franchises out there – but frankly, none can compare with ours in either the member or owner experience.
We were a boat-club pioneer when we began our business over 20 years ago, and today, we’re one of only two franchises nationwide offering the boat-club concept. We’re also the only franchising program of its kind in the marketplace, thanks to three key components:
SUPERIOR SUPPORT and training we provide for our owners;
Our operational model is a true turnkey business package proven to succeed. But just because we’ve developed a system that works doesn’t mean we use a cookie-cutter approach to setting up our boat clubs. In fact, personalized support for our owners is one of the cornerstones of our system.

- our exclusive club-management software;
- our comprehensive operations manual;
- hands-on experience at one of our clubs;
- 5-7 days of training at our headquarters;

- guidance on purchasing of fleet insurance, water toys, office computers and other equipment, and furniture;
