Kitsilano Yacht Club was founded in 1934 and over the years the Club has developed into an exciting venue for one-design sailing. Kits Yacht Club is home to active one-design fleets including the Star, 505, Lightning, Martin 242, and Pirate classes. It also has a number of kayaks and paddlers. Throughout the summer sailing season, the Club hosts a regular Thursday night race for members and their guests. This friendly competition is a great introduction to racing for new sailors, or an excellent way to keep your boat and crew in race-ready condition. Generally, our Lightnings, Stars and 5o5s are the most active fleets in this series, but all boats are welcome.

Description

West Vancouver Yacht Club is well known for its great hospitality, convenient location, fine food and beverage, leadership in learn to sail activities, safe moorage and excellent facilities. The Yacht Club has just over 600 active members and owns a number of outstations along the BC coast. Whether it be a weekend destination or a stop-over as part of a longer cruise, the West Vancouver Yacht Club outstations are conveniently located for either desire.

Of the Club's three facilities, the signature outstation at Elliott Bay is the most developed and only a 1.5 hour sail from the Club's home base. Cruising the Gulf Islands? Kendrick Island, four hours away, at the mouth of Gabriola Pass, is a logical first stop. If Desolation Sound beckons, the Club's joint marina operation in Duncan Cove in Pender Harbour is a day''s cruise away. So whatever the direction or length of cruise, a safe convenient port is available to the members of the West Vancouver Yacht Club. We also have a racing programme and adult and youth learn to sail programmes.
