Orcas Island Yacht Club

Club grounds - including the picnic shelter, the land it sets on and the docks, all located in West Sound - are for use by Club members and their guests, reciprocal guests, and other community oriented groups as prearranged with the OIYC.

Restrictions set forth by our Conditional Use Permit from the County require that no outdoor activities take place after 10:00 pm and that there be no rental of our Club facilities. The acting Commodore of the OIYC (or a board member as designated by the Commodore), when determining the appropriate use of Club facilities, should take a balanced view, which includes the needs of the prospective user, the terms of the Conditional Use Permit, and the sensitivities of the neighbors, and the possible wear and tear on the structures.

Applications for use of grounds or picnic shelter must be made to the Commodore and a written contract will be required for a group of more than 25.

The Dock is for the use of OIYC members, their guests and members of reciprocal clubs. Dock rules are posted.
