San Rafael Yacht Club, founded in 1938, is a member of Pacific Inter-Club Yacht Association, a family of Yacht Clubs first organized in 1896.  Our 4,000 square foot clubhouse is located at the West end of San Rafael Canal in a protected harbor offering visiting boaters over 300 feet of dock space.  The warm and friendly cocktail lounge overlooks the harbor and is adjacent to our large deck, dining and dancing areas that accommodate well over 150 people.

The purpose of San Rafael Yacht Club is to participate in the various activities sponsored by yachting and boating organizations of the Bay Area, to promote proper and safe boating, and to provide a comfortable atmosphere of camaraderie among it's members.

We welcome you by boat or car.  

Our Yacht Club is a volunteer organization, functioning almost entirely without hired help.  Members accept Watch Assignments twice a year and remain on-call for their months to assist in Club events.  General Membership and Board of Director's meetings are scheduled on the first and last Thursday (respectively) of each month. 
San Rafael Yacht Club Auxiliary is an important complement to club operations and beautification and is open to members, their spouses and children.  Dating back to the Club's origins, their fundraising events are both creative and entertaining.
 
 
Members participate in power and sail fleet cruises throughout the year including a Delta Cruise in August; in P.L.R.A. and N.C.P.C.A.; Y.R.A. race sponsorship; as well as a winter and summer intra-club sailboat race series.  A favorite club to cruise into, SRYC hosts many visiting yacht clubs throughout the year.  The social calendar is always full and exciting.  SRYC has also been recognized by the California State Legislature for it's humanitarian community service involvement.
