  • Affiliate
    • As of July 1, 2022, the entrance fee for an Affiliate Member is $2,000 + GST. Payment for this fee and the tax is to be included with an Affiliate membership application submitted to the Club Office. The monthly dues are $97.85+ GST.

      Should an Affiliate Member decide to, they can apply to the Board to convert to an Active Membership. This will allow them to use the outstations and start earning seniority to access Club moorage in the future. They will receive a discount on their Entrance Fee of five percent per year of membership to a maximum of 10 years, plus a credit for the original Affiliate entrance fee paid.

      The Affiliate membership category is currently capped at 30 members and is currently fully subscribed. If you are interested in adding your name to the waiting list for Affiliate Membership, please contact the Club Office [email protected].

  • Intermediate
    • Minimum age 16, maximum age 26. Intermediate Members who are also a full-time student are eligible for a 50% reduction of their regular quarterly dues.

      At age 27, an Intermediate Member is required to become an Active Member. They will be required to pay the current Membership Fee for 27 years of age, less 5% per year for each year they have been a Member, up to a maximum of 10 years. They will also be entitled to a discount equal to all dues paid since they became a Member. 


      Quarterly Dues
      Age Intermediate Intermediate Student
      16-26 $111.45 + GST $55.70 + GST
  • Junior
    • Applicants for Junior Membership must be between 4 and 18 years of age. A Junior Member is an individual membership. For Juniors whose parents are Members, the annual dues are reduced.

      At 16 years of age, a Junior Member has the option to transfer to an Intermediate or Intermediate Student Member. This change allows the Member to begin accumulating seniority as it relates to the eligibility of a future vessel moorage assignment. If a Junior elects to remain a Junior beyond 16, they will be required to transfer to Intermediate, Intermediate Student or Active when they reach 19 years of age to maintain their Membership.

      All previously paid dues go toward reducing the Membership fee, plus a 5% discount for each year of membership, to a maximum of 10 years (as specified in the bylaws).

        Annual Dues
      Age Junior (of Non-Members) Junior (of Members)
