Kingston Cove Yacht Club (“KCYC”) strives to be “The Best Little Yacht Club in Washington”, on Apple Tree Cove in Kingston, WA in the Port of Kingston. Our Club is a WA State nonprofit organization and dedicates itself to the promotion of safe, enjoyable boating and social activities through education and exchange of information, by assisting each other and our local community.
Our collective
boating activities include a robust cruise schedule to various Salish Sea ports of call led by our Fleet Captain and Cruise Committee. Destinations range from Anacortes to Olympia in 2025. Our Boater Safety Committee organizes several informational programs including an annual Boater Education Day with guest presenters on current topics.
KCYC’s
clubhouse facility with a commercial kitchen and licensed full-service bar supports numerous
social activities throughout the year. This includes monthly membership meetings, Friday evening socials, and special events.
Our
Community Engagement committee keeps us in touch with opportunities to support our local community. Not being a charitable organization, our community service is driven with member volunteers supporting local activities. Many of our members elect to make individual financial contributions to several local worthy causes.
Our members benefit from several amenities. Some highlights include but not limited to:
•
Organized group boating expeditions,
