Renewing members please note that we are changing our membership system:
- Your member number will change
- Please check your boat information (Full members) when you receive your confirmation – some members who own one boat and race on another have reported problems with the data transfer
Benefits:
Members enjoy weekend and some weekday cruises, PHRF racing both short course and day races, as well as social events through the year.
Full membership also includes reciprocal docking privileges at many yacht clubs on both sides of Lake Ontario and throughout the Thousand Islands.
All members receive our newsletter “Collins Mixer” and a discount to the Sailing School.
We own a floating clubhouse which is available for members use.
There are 4 levels of membership:
- Full Membership is open to families who keep their boat at Collins Bay Marina
- Associate Membership for families who do not keep a boat at the marina
- Youth Membership for those under 20 or who are full-time students
- Sustaining Membership for those full members who, for whatever reason, will be away from Collins Bay Marina for one or more years but who wish to maintain their membership (without club privileges)
Full membership includes participation in the reciprocal program and voting privileges in club decisions. Senior members of Executive must be full members. Associate, Student and Sustaining members do not participate in the reciprocal program and cannot vote.
Fees:
FOR 2021: Early Registration Fees will remain in effect until July 1st.
The club itself owns no docks or facilities other than the clubhouse. Slips, boat storage, launch etc. are managed by Collins Bay Marina, and are not included in our fees.
