Starting horn just gone
Welcome to the Sunshine Coast Yacht Club, a member of Sail Canada.
​
We are a sailboat racing club operating from Gibsons on the beautiful Sunshine Coast of B.C.
Our purpose is to facilitate regular keelboat races, and special events for sailors of all levels of expertise.
While we sail in a spirit of friendly competition, our number one objective is for skippers and crew to enjoy being out there!

Membership is affordable - see the Membership page.
​​Sunday. Races start at 11:15 am. (Check the calendar)
Join the Skipper's meeting in front of the Gibsons Marina office at 10:15

Sunday races
Sailboat racing is fun, safe, fair while attempting to keeping it affordable.
Check the calendar for Sunday races that are held year round with a regular fleet of around 10 boats of all types and sizes.
​
Our July regatta usually has a fleet of about 20 boats. See the regatta page for more information.
​
