CORE FOCUS
At Freedom Boat Club of Wilmington our core focus is:
Creating lifelong memories through hassle-free boating.

CORE VALUES
The foundational values of Freedom Boat Club of Wilmington are embedded in the structure of the organization. These represent the minimum expectations established by the organization's founding leadership.

Uncompromising Integrity. While integrity is woven throughout the fabric of each core value, it is the foundation on which our organization has been built. We are unapologetically loyal, dependable, honest, and exercise good judgement and respect in all that we do. It is often through our mistakes that we progress. When we are wrong, we own it and strive to always make it right.

Sparking Joy and Delight. We strive to create unexpected positive feelings associated with the Freedom Boat Club experience by rolling out the red carpet for every member reservation. We capitalize on opportunities to bring joy to our teammates and the docks. Our staff go above and beyond to anticipate the needs and exceed the expectations of our members by removing barriers and facilitating hassle-free boating.

I Have the Helm! We understand that it can be easy to get lost in the multitude of factors that cannot be controlled in boating. At Freedom Boat Club of Wilmington, we are innovative and flexible problem-solvers. Accountability is the backbone of our organization, empowering us to be solution-focused advocates for our team and members.

Carry the Cooler. We tackle the challenging and time-consuming tasks that can prevent our members from getting on the water. Much like a person tasked with carrying the family cooler from the car to the beach, our work can lack glamour. Our tasks can be heavy and may slap us in the knees. Whether we do it alone or with a teammate, we "carry the cooler" so our members can get on the water.
