There are many good reasons to join the Herring Bay Yacht Club. Firstly, we are a group of professionals and retired people who all share the love of the bay and our boats. When you arrive at Herring Bay, you can be assured that you are among friends and there are people around you who share the same interests. The HBYC extends to the entire Herring Bay region, not just a particular marina. We host events and social gatherings in all the harbors from Herrington Harbour South, North and Shipwright. We are also a members of the Yachting Club of America (YCA). This important association entitles our members to receive reciprocal privileges at hundreds of marinas and other clubs in North America. Many of our members do not even live in this area, but they enjoy the many benefits of reciprocity of the HBYC and the YCA.

We are a social and yachting society of both power and sailboats. We have many social events and cruises throughout the area's waters. We schedule cruises to popular destinations with a group of club members.  On long cruises, which many folks would never do on their own, it is a nice feeling to look over to the boat next to you and know you have a friend taking the trip with you.

We have yearly events to promote boating safety.  We encourage the club to participate in the Coast Guard Courtesy inspections.  We offer education on navigation, rules of the road, and severe weather conditions.

We offer numerous club and non club events involving overnight anchor outs and land events.  This is probably one of a new boater's greatest fears.  Is the anchor holding?  Is the boat in deep enough water?  Is this a safe place to stay the night?  With a group of boats, all rafted together, this can calm even the most worry minded boater.  We can show you the "how to's" and the greatest places on the Bay to spend a night. Check out our Anchor Out schedule by clicking the "Cruises" button.

Land Events - We have lawn parties and barbeques by the water in season and even events out of season to get us together. A lot of the cruises that we schedule have land facilities for people who do not want to make the trip on water.  Staying at a facility on land will allow you to still participate in the club activities.

Day trips - Herrington Harbour Marina is close to many places within easy reach of a days cruise. Many restaurants and towns are nearby.  These include such places as Annapolis, Kent Island, St. Michael's, Galesville, and Calvert Cliffs.  Many of our club members round up a crew to take a day hop to many of these destinations.

Making Friends - Since the yacht club is made up of people of all ages, it is easy to make friends with people who have the same interests you do.  And we all have an interest in boating in common.
