Barrington resident Jim Sincox always wanted a boat to take out on area waterways, but his wife, Liz, was wary of the costs and time commitment of a vessel s upkeep and winter storage.
When they joined the Barrington Boat Club a few years ago, however, they received what Jim Sincox called the best of both worlds.
The boat club business model, which rapidly expanded into McHenry County as interest in boating surged amid the COVID-19 pandemic, offers members the chance to take out one of a fleet of boats whenever they would like, while the club staff handles the maintenance, cleaning, repair and storage of the vehicles.
