Why choose Liberty Pass as a partner?
Would you like to develop theboat membership at your marina, diversify your business, or offer your customers a new way to enjoy boating?
Choosing the right model to work with is essential.
At Liberty Pass, our approach is based on a firm belief: a successful boat subscription model cannot thrive without experienced boating professionals on the ground.
So we’re not just looking to make boats available to subscribers. We’re building a network in which each partner plays a central role: knowledge of the boats, support for boaters, orientation, follow-up, and quality of service.
Liberty Pass has been in business for over 6 years and has established itself as the leader in boat sharing in France, with a proven business model that has already been adopted by more than 90 active partners.
Here's why professionals are choosing to implement Liberty Pass in their ports today.
A model developed in collaboration with boating professionals
Liberty Pass allows multiple subscribers to share a single boat as part of a subscription.
For professionals, the benefit lies in being able to develop a recurring business model centered on boat use, while also providing a solution for recreational boaters who want to sail regularly without necessarily becoming owners.
But our vision goes beyond the subscription model.
We want the professional to remain at the center of the system.
Because a recreational boater isn't just looking for access to a boat. They also need advice, guidance, and reassurance.
That's where your expertise really comes into its own.
Liberty Pass helps you develop your subscription service
Developing a boat subscription service requires more than just having a boat in a marina.
We need to be able to support future subscribers, manage usage, and create an experience of sufficiently high quality to build a lasting relationship.
It is precisely in these areas that Liberty Pass supports its partners.
The goal isn't to leave you on your own with a concept to develop.
You’ll be joining an established network and business model, with a team that understands the specific challenges of boat subscriptions and boat sharing.
This allows you to focus on what you know best: your boats, your customers, and your sailing area.
You remain at the heart of the relationship with boaters
It is a key component of the Liberty Pass model.
Technology enhances the experience, but it does not replace the professional.
The Liberty Pass partner continues to play a hands-on role with subscribers, particularly as they get to know the boat and learn how to operate it.
An experienced boater who is trying out a new boat doesn't have the same needs as a subscriber who is just starting to sail on their own.
The guidance must therefore take into account the boater’s skill level, as well as the specific characteristics of the boat.
This proximity directly contributes to the quality of the Liberty Pass experience.
And it allows professionals to build a lasting relationship with their subscribers rather than just a one-time interaction.
An ecosystem designed to simplify operations
A boat subscription also requires specific organizational arrangements: reservations, access to boats, tracking usage, and managing the subscriber experience.
Liberty Pass relies on Nauticoncept's solutions to digitize part of its operations.
The goal is simple: to use technology to streamline operations, without eliminating the human touch that makes all the difference in the field.
This allows the professional to maintain their position as a local boating expert while leveraging an ecosystem designed for the subscription model.
Professionals Share Their Experiences
Rather than just talking about our model, we'd also like to give the floor to those who are implementing it on the ground.
Lion Yachting is developing Liberty Pass in La Grande-Motte
Marcin, CEO of Lion Yachting, explains how he introduces Liberty Pass to prospective subscribers as well as to boat owners who want to get more value out of their boats.
In particular, he highlights a key aspect of the partnership: support for recreational boaters.
Each introductory coaching session is tailored to the subscriber's level of experience and the boat being used.
Because the quality of a membership doesn't begin the moment the boater leaves the marina. It begins the moment they take the helm.
Every professional has their own business, port, clientele, and unique challenges.
That is why we also want to share various testimonials from Liberty Pass partners and demonstrate, in concrete terms, how the model fits into their business.

In this video, Nicolas focuses on explaining how Liberty Pass helps build a genuine connection with subscribers and energize—or even revitalize—life in the harbors. He shares his belief that this type of boat-sharing should gradually become a standard practice in the recreational boating community.
