One of the premiere yacht clubs on the West Coast. Established in 1958, the club is known as the “friendliest yacht club on the bay.” Our members share their love of the ocean, whether racing, cruising or fishing.

Small-boat racing was the genesis of BCYC and today we race sailboats of all sizes. Many of our racers participate in most of the PHRF and one-design events locally, while we also have a core group of serious professionals. The Junior Sailing program is recognized as one of the finest in Southern California, providing our junior sailors with an enhanced sense of self-reliance, knowledge of seamanship and a strong appreciation of teamwork.

The social scene at the club is very diverse and includes the annual Commodore’s Ball and New Years Eve party, a strong group of dedicated tap dancers who train every Wednesday, fishing tournaments, cruises to local destinations throughout the year, themed fine-dining events and the Showboat dinner-theater – a staged spectacular featuring a members-only cast.

Review the many sections of our website to gain more detailed information about the club. We look forward to your visit to BCYC.
