Closing Letter from our 2024 Commodore

WE'VE GOT WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR 

Since 1977, SRYC has been offering boaters a welcoming, relaxed and unpretentious way to cruise with knowledgeable boaters where a helping hand is always nearby.  We are located on the beautiful Sassafras River on the North East region of the Bay.  Pay dues in full, $150, and receive all member benefits, including the Crab Feast or pay $75 to join the club with the option to attend the Crab Feast at the cost of $75 for Captain, First Mate and any children under 18.  This for first year members only.  Members receive a wealth of benefits:

• A handsome burgee to fly from your boat with the first year membership.
• Yearly Crab Feast (usually held in August) and both Captain and First Mate can attend at the rate of $75 (for both).
• Multiple cruise events provide the opportunity to choose the cruises of interest to you from the eight to ten trips planned yearly by the club.
• Your membership card will provide access to the facilities of sister yacht clubs, in both the U.S. and overseas.
• BOAT/US membership can be purchased for a discount.
• Membership to CBYCA (Chesapeake Bay Yacht Club's Association). The primary purpose of CBYCA is to protect the interests of boaters through legislation and interaction with national, state, and local boating and waterways organizations, both public and private. The CBYCA operational region covers the five states of Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New Jersey, plus the District of Columbia. SYRC members can take advantage of a reciprocity agreement between some members clubs of CBYCA. You must first check with the other member clubs for any membership privileges available, e.g., special transient pricing. See the CBYCA website for more information: www.cbyca.org
• We strive to support local merchants and the marinas we visit.

So if you treasure your days on the water and value the company of fun loving fellow boaters, your new friends at the Sassafras River Yacht Club are looking forward to your arrival.
