Freedom Boat Club - Richmond

The Jamas River is surprisingly beautiful this time of the year. Rory at FBC is tops. She helps makes boating fun! The runabout boat is sporty and easy to pilot!

The dock staff were helpful when we arrived but they really shined during our return. A severe storm hit that was unexpected and they stayed in constant communication to help facilitate our return to the dock with the focus on our safety because visibility was close to zero. They helped grab our stuff and bring it to the top of the hill and even waited for us to come back after we had left an item behind. Kudos to the both of them!

This was our first boat outing with Freedom Boat Club after having just completed the new member orientation earlier that day. We called last minute and were able to get the boat of our choice. Ricky had everything ready to go and did an outstanding job explaining everything for us on the checklist as well as giving us a few tips for our trip.

I do wish you would allow fishing on more of the boats. I am a casual fisherman these days, which is to say I take a small amount of gear and it's not a cumbersome situation. I do understand that the runabouts and pontoons have more soft surfaces, however, I believe I could fish quite handily off of either and not damage the equipment. Yesterday's outing would have been a bit better if I could have dropped a line in the water for a bit. Let's face it, there are many ways one can damage the boats. I don't think fishing is any more hazardous than certain other activities or behaviors. It comes down to the individual.

I had my first trip out with my family and the experience was great. The Dock crew was professional, courteous and very helpful. I'm very happy to be a member of Freedom Boat Club.

Great to have the means to catch the largest bass of my life! 9lbs 8oz!

Great experience. Rockett's Landing is a neat location. Crew did a really nice job and boat was in excellent shape.
