| About Our Club: |
The origin of the Boyne City Yacht Club has been traced back thru the misty past to a
summer evening in 1987. A small group of boating and sailing enthusiasts who were
involved in racing gathered at the Boyne River Inn in Boyne City to discuss starting a
club. After a few refreshments everyone heartily agreed that this was a good idea. The
newly formed BCYC adopted the lounge at One Water Street, which was just opening
at that time, as their informal clubhouse. Over the next fifteen years the club grew
from approximately fifty charter members to over six hundred members. The present
club consists of a group of fun loving water enthusiasts including power and sail
boaters. Our calendar of activities spans the whole year and not just the summer
boating season. In the summer there are a series of weekly sailboat races held each
Tuesday evening at the east end of Lake Charlevoix and several cruises to rendezvous
destinations. Our off-season activities have grown to a full calendar of events including
Change of Watch, Commodore’s Ball and an ever-changing list of other fun events.
Would you like to meet and mingle with a fun group of people? Club events include
both water and non-water activities, therefore owning a watercraft is not a
requirement. Becoming a member is easy, simply fill out a membership application
and include the applicable fee of $40 which includes your $10 initiation. note: The fee
is $35 if you prefer email Club communication!
