About Us
Edmonds Yacht Club was founded in 1961 in conjunction with the opening of the Port of Edmonds boat harbor as a focal point for those who wished to enhance their enjoyment of boat ownership with the social camaraderie of fellow boaters. Our membership consists of a wide spectrum of boaters, from families with young children to retired grandparents and a whole bunch in between.
We're an Active, Cruising Club that conducts a cruise almost every month. We usually conduct a major cruise around the three main summer holidays, cruising to destinations such as Port Orchard over the Memorial Day weekend, San Juan Islands during the independence Day holiday and Oak Harbor or Lake Washington for the Labor Day weekend. We often plan an extended cruise further north following our July 4th event. Our Lighted Boat Parade in December has become a popular Edmonds tradition.
Our monthly general meetings are preceded by a social hour and dinner. They offer an opportunity for a mid- week night out where you can socialize with other members and become informed about club activities, boating safety and other related subjects. We open the clubhouse for an informal T.G.I.F. (Thank God it's Friday) gathering every second Friday. The T.G.I.F. social is sometimes a Potluck while other times we furnish a main course for a minimal fee.
