WHAT IS THE SPRING TRIAL?
A shorter way in
A shorter first step into membership
Standard Boatlife membership is a 12-month commitment. The Spring Trial gives you the same Unlimited experience for just 3 months — so you can get out on the water, see how it fits into your life, and decide from there.
All training and activation included
Your $995 club activation & training fee covers personalised one-on-one onboarding and on-water Boatlife training. Your 3-month trial access begins once training is complete and you're cleared to book independently.
"The same access, the same boats, the same support — just 3 months instead of 12."
