Description

What JPYC has to offer: Friendship and camaraderie - Make new friends who share your passion for boating & water sports. Social events and food service - We enjoy social events throughout the year. On the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend, the Club holds its Opening Day ceremonies and fleet review, followed by lunch. During the season breakfast and lunch are available in the galley on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, and the Sea Scouts serve dinner Wednesday evenings. Sail racing - We have a low-key racing program for sailboats. Several members also race with the Midwest Open Racing Fleet (MORF) and in races coordinated by Area III of the Lake Michigan Sail Race Federation (LMSRF). Those who'd like to try racing are invited to learn by crewing for more experienced skippers. Skippers looking for a more relaxing experience enjoy cruising Lake Michigan with other JPYC boats. Reduced fee mast stepping and removal - Mast storage - For a small fee, members may store their masts during the winter on racks owned by the Club. 24-hour access- During the season, members have 24-hour access to the clubhouse, the workshop, and the ice machines. At other times access may be arranged by appointment. The facilities include restrooms, lockers, and showers. There is a TV/VCR unit in the dining room. The club is equipped with WI-FI, inside and outside. If you are on your boat in the summer you can use the wireless access -for members.
