RYC
Discover Sailing, Discover Community
Whether you’re new to sailing or have years of experience, Rye Yacht Club is a place where everyone is welcome. We’re a family-focused club that values community as much as time on the water. From junior sailors taking their first lessons to parents, grandparents, and friends joining in social races, there’s a place for every age and every stage. Becoming part of RYC means more than just sailing — it’s about sharing weekends by the bay, building friendships, and being part of a community that’s been growing together since 1970. We’d love for you to join us and help sail into the next chapter of Rye Yacht Club.
