Shared Access Can Put

You on The Water

The NMMA says that the average American boater only uses their boat for 25 days a year. That means most of the season is available for “shared access” and welcome income to boat owners – and, boat use at a fraction of the cost for program members. It is a win-win for both members and owners. BoatTEST has developed a proven program that is getting rave reviews from members who are getting the use of well-equipped premium boats. Pick the location and boat model you prefer, or inquire about adding your new boat to the fleet...
