Brunswick Corp.’s Freedom Boat Club, one of the largest boat club operators, is expanding into Fajardo, Puerto Rico.

This is the first boat club to operate in the country, offering members unlimited access to its fleet and globally across the company’s 380 locations through its reciprocal access program.

“We believe there is an opportunity to successfully expand Freedom Boat Club across Puerto Rico as one of the world’s top boating destinations and one of the most popular activities in the region,” said Louis Chemi, VP of the Freedom Franchise Network. “This expansion into Puerto Rico represents the beginning of our continued efforts to replicate the successful model we have built stateside and provide a pathway to introduce more global consumers to the on-water lifestyle.”

The site at Safe Harbor Puerto del Rey Marina is a long-time partner of Freedom Boat Club, operated by franchise owner Mike Centeno, a native of Puerto Rico with over 20 years of experience in businesses on the island and across Northeast Puerto Rico.
