Gulf Yacht Club - The Place to Be
The Gulf Yacht Club is the friendliest yacht club in BC.
We are a jolly group of sailors and their families who like to cruise under sail and explore the waters of the Pacific Northwest. We are a "virtual" yacht club - our boats are moored in a variety of marinas. Our primary focus is on companionship when cruising local waters and we don't race (officially...). We welcome both experienced and novice sailors and support them in their cruising endeavors.
We hold our meetings on the second Monday of every month (except for July and August) at the Vancouver Maritime Museum.
We are always looking for new members, as we are a virtual club our membership cost is very low. Initiation is $50 and annual dues are only $170.
The link below is an article published in the Canadian Yachting Magazine about the GYC discussing how the club started and our activities.
