Portside Launches National Boat Giveaways to Support Aspiring Boaters

Newport Beach, CA, USA - September 11, 2026 - Portside, a media and apparel brand founded in 2026 by Cody Smith in Orange County, California, recently announced its ongoing national campaign to give boats away to the public. Operating on a model where entries are free and the prizes are entirely partner-funded, the company aims to help individuals who find boat ownership financially out of reach.

The cost of buying, storing, and maintaining a vessel has increased steadily, making the boating lifestyle difficult for the average person to afford. Portside addresses this barrier to entry directly. The company organizes and runs nationwide sweepstakes that award boats to winners without requiring any purchase to enter. By leveraging a partner-funded approach, Portside ensures that the financial backing for the boats comes from outside brand partnerships, rather than relying on entry fees from participants.

"We give boats away," said Cody Smith, founder of Portside, summarizing the core objective of the brand.

Emphasizing the company’s focus on digital content and community building, Smith described Portside as "media first". The brand produces and publishes authentic boating media alongside its regular giveaways, aiming to create an engaging space for boating enthusiasts across the country. Through its digital channels, the company highlights the realities of life on the water and connects with people who share a passion for boating.

In addition to organizing these national sweepstakes and producing media, Portside designs and sells original nautical gear and apparel. Followers of the brand can track current giveaways, watch new media content, and shop for gear through the official website and social media channels. The brand uses its online presence to reach a broad audience of water sports and fishing fans who might not otherwise have the means to buy a boat.
