Each week on On a Mission, our host Penny Kievet talks to people from around Jacksonville who are doing interesting things. This week, Penny talks to George Biastre Jr., the membership director for Freedom Boat Club.
We do all the work and our members have all the fun!
In North Florida that’s 84+ boats at three convenient locations — Jacksonville at Julington Creek Marina, Jacksonville Beach at Beach Marine, and St. Augustine at Camachee Cove Marina.
And, we have boats for every adventure: bowriders, deck boats, pontoon boats, ski boats, and three varieties of center console fishing boats.
