Shilshole Bay

Yacht Club

Membership Information

Shilshole Bay Yacht Club was chartered in 1961 to provide a friendly and informal organization for people interested in recreational boating and fun on the water. We welcome newcomers and are pleased you’re interested in becoming a member. Here’s how:

• Applicants must be sponsored by two members in good standing. If you don’t know anyone in the Club, email our Rear Commodore or contact us through our postal mail address and we’ll get in touch with you.

• Upon completion and submission of the application the applicant shall become a conditional member.
   
• Conditional members must attend two social functions within one year. Social functions include dinner meetings (held the third Thursday of each month, except June, July and August), fun cruises, holiday cruises, parties or similar events.
   
• When the attendance requirement is met and payment of the initiation fee and one year’s dues (prorated quarterly), the Board will vote on the application. After receiving a majority vote of the Board, the conditional member shall become a senior member. If the member is not approved, all fees will be returned.
