Freedom Boat Club, a division of Brunswick Corporation (NYSE: BC) and the world's largest boat club, today announced plans to open its newest Australian location at Kalevu Marina on the Georges River, just south of Sydney. Scheduled to debut in July 2026, Freedom Boat Club Sydney South represents another exciting milestone in the brand's ongoing expansion across the Asia-Pacific region, further strengthening its presence in Australia's growing recreational boating market.

Situated at 25 Harrow Street in Sylvania, the new club will offer members convenient access to Botany Bay and the Georges River, two of Sydney's most scenic and sought-after waterways. Future plans include expansion to Port Hacking, enhancing members' opportunities to explore vibrant destinations known for world-class fishing, water sports, and waterfront dining. With the launch of Freedom Boat Club Sydney South, residents of the Sutherland Shire will be able to experience Freedom's signature hassle-free boating lifestyle with access to a premium fleet without the costs, maintenance, or responsibilities of boat ownership.

"Demand for flexible and accessible boating experiences in Australia continues to outpace expectations," said David Kurczewski, General Manager, Asia-Pacific, Freedom Boat Club. "The Sydney South club will deliver an exceptional on-water lifestyle for our members, perfectly positioned for exploring some of the most beautiful waters and best fishing in New South Wales."

Freedom Boat Club Sydney South plans to launch with a diverse fleet, including the Sea Ray SPX 230 and Arvor 705 Weekend, soon to be joined by Trophy and Rayglass boats for offshore fishing adventures. Members receive full training, unlimited boat usage, and reciprocal access to Freedom Boat Club's global network of more than 400 locations.

The Sydney South franchise is independently owned and operated by Klaus Hahn, an experienced business leader with a strong background in engineering, corporate strategy, and organizational development.

"With Freedom Boat Club Sydney South, we're creating a seamless, world-class boating experience that fits perfectly into the lifestyle of the Sutherland Shire," said Hahn. "Our location at Kalevu Marina offers easy access to incredible waterways and a welcoming club community where members can connect, explore, and enjoy life on the water."

While the Sydney South location will be opening before the 2026-2027 season, members who join now can enjoy access to Freedom Boat Club's Sydney Harbour Club with a seamless transition to Freedom Boat Club Sydney South when it opens, ensuring they can begin experiencing the benefits of membership immediately.
