Have you considered joining a club? Here are some reasons why it will be beneficial.
Joining a club normally allows access to the club facilities and premises, which comes in handy especially if you are new to boating and need some assistance and guidance. Senior members of the club will also be able to advise on the conditions, structures in the water, and fishing in the area.
When you join a club, your launching fees, storage facilities, and meals at the clubhouse are normally much cheaper and you are first to know of any specials or offerings by the club.
Share your passion for boating and fishing with like-minded people.
When you spend time with people that have been in the game for a while you get first-hand knowledge built up over years.
Take part in club competitions and events. This helps you to socially engage with club members and meet friends that share your interests.
At a club there are a diversity of boats and outboards. Therefore, by sourcing information from people that have first-hand experience, you can make an informed decision about your next purchase For example, comparing Suzuki’s fuel consumption to others you will clearly be able to draw the conclusion that apart from affordable parts and accessories, low maintenance, and durability, you save on fuel every time you head out on the water.
You will increase your regularity of boating when you have a community of friends to share and enjoy it with.
Most clubs also offer support infrastructure in emergency situations, giving you more peace of mind when you are out on the water.
Some of the best and most long-lasting friendships are built in clubs by the water.
