RECIPROCITY

Like most US yacht clubs HYC is a member of Yachting Club of America (ycaol.com).  Registered clubs normally offer reciprocity to other club’s members which typically includes use of the club’s facilities and the ability to rent transient dockage on a space available basis. The YCoA  book which lists member clubs and their offerings is available in the club office. Member clubs include Southern Yacht Club in New Orleans, San Diego Yacht Club, and many more.

Additionally, HYC has historically had special arrangements with a few Bay clubs which offer limited free dockage.
