Want to sail? Join the club!
Gibsons Yacht club owns three sailboats moored at Gibsons Marina available for use by GYC members who take out a club boat membership (details below). This is an affordable way to have fun on the water and gain sailing knowledge.
As a club boat member, you get use of the sailboats for a full year. No moorage costs, no insurance costs, no power costs, no maintenance costs. No extra charge for the fellowship and fun. Club members work together to ready the boats and learn from each other.
Meet the Fleet!
Our full-sized cruiser sailboats are well-equipped and maintained and perfect for day sailing, and overnight trip, or a week away.
Drop by our Open House on Sunday 13th April from 10.00am to 4:00pm at Gibsons Marina. GYC owns three 27’ sailboats for use by Club Boat members, boaters who want to sail but don’t want the expense of paying moorage, insurance or maintenance costs. You can talk to members, tour the boats and even sign up right on the dock.
