We offer franchises (“FBC Franchises” or “Franchise(s)”) for FBC Businesses. FBC Businesses operate under our proprietary system (“System”), which consists of our proprietary reservation program, certain specified equipment, instructional manuals, training courses, know-how, sales and merchandising methods, advertising techniques, recordkeeping, and business management methods. FBC Businesses sell memberships to members (“Members”) for the use of the FBC Business's vessels at designated times and for designated time periods based on an entry fee and monthly dues. Members in good standing are entitled to reserve the use of a vessel subject to availability and the rules and regulations of the FBC Business. The cost to use the vessel is included in the membership price. Members are responsible for their own fuel costs. A typical FBC Business will be located at or near a large body of water and in a geographic area suitable for the operation of a FBC Business.

Summary of Investment Costs
Upfront Franchise Fees
Minimum: $50,000 Maximum: $365,000
Upfront franchise fees are the one-time payments required to secure rights to operate under an established brand, typically ranging from $20,000 to $100,000+ depending on brand value.
These fees grant access to proprietary business systems, training programs, intellectual property rights, and often territorial exclusivity—essentially purchasing the blueprint for a proven business model.
While separate from ongoing royalties, investors should evaluate these fees against expected returns, comparing fee-to-earnings ratios across opportunities and assessing how effectively franchisors reinvest these funds into system improvements.
Total Investment Costs
Minimum: $222,500 Maximum: $500,500
Ongoing Fees
Ongoing franchise fees, typically structured as royalties ranging from 4-8% of gross sales, represent the continuous payments franchisees make to maintain brand affiliation and support services.
These recurring fees fund the franchisor's operational assistance, marketing initiatives, technology updates, and continued brand development—creating a partnership where the franchisor's revenue grows alongside the franchisee's success. In addition to royalties, franchisees often contribute to national advertising funds (usually 1-3% of sales) and may incur technology fees, supply chain markups, or renewal fees depending on the franchise agreement.
Investors should carefully analyze these ongoing costs within their financial projections, as they directly impact profit margins and cash flow throughout the entire franchise relationship.
