Victoria Cruising Club Plans Busy Summer

Summer Fun

Apr 25, 2024

The Victoria Cruising Club is a group of people that enjoy the active boating lifestyle in a club with low dues and high social interaction. We include all kinds of sail and power boats and like to welcome a few new members each year.

Friday Harbour

Around 1970 the Club’s name was changed to the “Victoria Cruising Club”. The Club bylaws limit the number of Active Members such that there is a maximum of seventy five boats (owner and mate – so about 150 people) plus any boats of Honorary Life Members. Active members who retire from boating can become Associate Members and continue their social relationships with the Club.

If your boat is resident in the southern part of Vancouver Island (south of North Cowichan) and you would like to get involved in our club, check the club’s website Victoriacruisingclub.com.

Sailing into the Future at Antigua Sailing Week

By Mathew Channer

“Standby tack,” Canadian sailor Katy Campbell orders. The crew scrambles over the sheet lines and braces on the deck.

“Three, two, one, tack!”

I wait until the bow turns into the wind and the headsail snaps over, then crawl over the cabin top of Panacea X to the now windward side. The trim team smoothly sheets on the headsail and a competitor vessel shoots past our stern, feet away, as our Solana 45 beats eastward along Antigua’s south coast.
