Gulf Yacht Club Cruising Already Underway

Gulf Yacht Club

Mar 28, 2024

The Gulf Yacht Club is a small sailing club with about 80 members in the Metro Vancouver/Vancouver Island/Sunshine Coast area. We have a very active membership and a busy cruising schedule.

Our club is very casual, and members are always willing to help each other with any questions or hands-on assistance. Our cruises and rendezvous gatherings are well attended with lots of good eats, camaraderie and some fun and games. Most gatherings are on weekends, but the extended cruises tend to be weeks long. Members are invited to join all or part of these cruises. We welcome non members to join the fun and try us out. Check us out and see our cruising schedule here

Power boats?

The Gulf Yacht Club is for sailors, however, if you have been a member for five years the constitution allows the member to transition to a power boat and maintain membership. This protocol seems to be working well and all members are sailors or former sailors. 

With no real property or moorage our member fees are low and currently we are seeking new members. It’s safer and more fun to sail with friends!

Spotted! Canadian Boating in Antigua & Barbuda

By Mathew Channer

I wore my Canadian Boating cap everywhere I went in Antigua, for the sun, not for the shout-outs. But I sure received a lot of them.

Antigua Sailing Week is an international regatta that draws sailors of every level and spectators from all over the world. Yet I couldn’t walk across a room without being hailed by a Canadian who was as excited to see my cap as they were to see the racing. I met many who were on their 3rd, 4th and 5th visit.
