The Britannia Yacht Club (BYC) is pleased to offer reciprocal privileges to visiting sailors who are full members in good standing of your club for the 2018 membership year. We hope that you would extend the same privileges to our members.
BYC is a full reciprocal club extending privileges to sailors and their boats for up to 1 week, depending on available space.
Boats may be launched free of charge with our 12,000 lb capacity crane. There is a charge of $15.00 per night for boats staying longer than 7 days.
BYC is an active club with a large membership base and some 300 boats. We also boast a casual and friendly atmosphere with an active social agenda. The Club hosts a number of regattas each summer. We offer full bar and restaurant services, tennis, showers, Wi-Fi, Ice, gas and diesel, etc.
BYC was established in 1887 and is the oldest yacht club in the National Capital region. It is located on the Ottawa River and lies just west of the city centre.
Sailors and their families are welcome to use BYC’s facilities while visiting Ottawa for business or pleasure. During the summer the bar and restaurant are open 7 days a week. During the evenings our members often relax under our marquis tent and enjoy the city’s best sunset. During the winter months BYC is open Wednesday evenings, Friday evenings and Sundays; visitors traveling to Ottawa during the winter months to skate on the world’s longest rink, to enjoy Winterlude, or to catch a Senator’s game are welcome to drop by and visit our famous ‘magic dragon’ bar and relax by our large copper fireplace.
Information on accommodations, restaurants, the numerous museums and galleries, and the region’s many festivals and events can be found at www.ottawatourism.ca
