With 50 years of boating experience, Bridge Marina has noticed a growing trend among boaters… they love boating, but do not love all of the chores, costs, and commitments involved in boat ownership. The endless responsibilities associated with owning a boat can sometimes begin to pile up and overwhelm a boater, especially with the busy lifestyle most of us have.
The commitments of boat ownership become too overwhelming and make the recreation you love to become a burden rather than an enjoyable and leisurely way to spend your time and money.
Multiple Boats
As a member of Bridge Marina Boating Club, you have access to not just one boat... but an entire fleet of boats!
Take out your plush Four Winns Cruiser or sporty Monterey 234FSX for an afternoon. Go fishing one morning in your Polar Dual Console. Or, spend the day with the family on the Odyssey Pontoon. The choice is yours! The Boating Club allows you to enjoy a fleet of boats with turn-key services... you simply enjoy boating!
Flexibility for Life's Changes
Does this situation sound familiar to you? The kids have gone off to college, and your current boat is now much too big for you and your spouse. Or, you've always wanted a sporty fishing boat, but that doesn't suit your family's current lifestyle.
A boater's needs and desires change, and oftentimes the boat that fit so well a few years ago no longer suits a family's needs. In either case, what usually happens is the boater finally decides to forfeit the boat because it no longer works for them.
Bridge Marina Boating Club is flexible. As a member, you're not tied up in ownership of any particular boat. Whatever your current boating needs or desires... the Club provides you with a boat that is sure to fit... without long-term commitments or investment!
Management
Managing all the commitments and responsibilites of owning a boat can consume a lot of your precious time. For a boat owner, an afternoon of boating can sometimes turn into one hour of boat prep, one hour of boating, and one hour spent closing up the boat. And that's on a good day!
A Boating Club member's afternoon is all boating... members simply show up and enjoy their day! No uncovering the boat. No worries of a dead battery. No need to fill up with fuel beforehand.
And, when a member returns to our marina from a day of fun, they simply go home! No hassles of cleaning the boat. No need to cover the boat. No hassles whatsoever. As a member, all of your precious vacation time is spent boating and having fun!
Cost
Owning a boat can be a wonderful experience. It is something many of us see as a right of passage, like buying your first car.
However, owning a boat comes with as many or more costs than owning a car than most boat owners realize... many owners find this out the hard way! Take a moment to play with our cost and time analysis tools and see for yourself how much money the boating club will save you!
Committed to Ownership
The Boating Club allows you the freedom to join year by year. Boat ownership means that you are obligated to your boat year in and year out, including loan payments, storage and maintenance. If you wish to take a pause with boat ownership, you either pay to store your boat, or you have to sell your boat and accept any depreciation.
The Boating Club is the solution to those commitments; do what you wish from season to season without worrying about ownership or your investment!
Is it for Everyone?
The Boating Club is an incredible way to enjoy boating, although it may not be for everyone. The Boating Club's parent company, Bridge Marina, Inc., has hundreds of satisfied clients who own their own boat and truly love boating. We understand that some people love owning their own boat, and we cater to these boaters as well by providing a multitude of services to make their boating lifestyle an incredible experience.
Bridge Marina operates a full service marina and sells new and pre-owned boats; we are happy to accomodate boaters in whatever manner they wish. But, if you enjoy unfettered relaxation time, choice and savings, it is difficult to beat a Boating Club membership! |
