Welcome to the Northport Yacht Club

The Northport Yacht Club was founded in 1939 in the village of Bayside in Northport Maine.

Our mission as stated in the original charter:

To encourage the sport of boating and sailing;
To promote the science of seamanship and navigation;
To provide members with an opportunity to participate in a variety of boating and/or social activities;
To provide and maintain a suitable clubhouse for recreation and use by our members.

The Northport Yacht Club is much more than a club for boaters and boat owners. The club has always taken the fulfillment of the social aspects of our charter directives seriously. Only a minority of our members participate in sailing races or go on club cruises. Most join simply to have fun, meet people and participate in social activities in and for the general Bayside Community. It is the social aspects of the club that keeps members coming back.

Hello Bayside Parents, Grandparents and Trusted Adults!

This message is in regards to the Annual NYC Board Meeting, to be held this Saturday 8/8 at 5:30 (if you'd like to grab a dessert), official start 6PM, at the NYC (rain plan: at Community Hall).

This is an event that allows folks to see how an NYC Board meeting typically works BUT ALSO involves awards, trophies and recognition for kids in the sailing school, as well as adults who have participated in races, volunteered, etc. Sailing instructors present awards to sailing students, and the Sailing School Committee will also present an award for John Short races.

Several parents have reached out expressing dismay after missing the meeting, only to find out later that their kiddos were honored in front of a large portion of our membership for earning the Sailing Student of the year, or other awards.

If you are here, please plan an early dinner and join us for this meeting and desserts!

We hope to see you there!

Lisa
