Your Second Home on the Lake.....

Please check out our great video in the video tab below 

A private club for those that love the water and good friends!

Do you love looking at the water, being near the water, or want to get out onto the water? Don’t let the word “Yacht” scare you from what could be the best personal recreation decision you have ever made. We have yet to see anyone at the club wear an ascot or captain's hat. No one talks like Thurston Howell III (wealthy millionaire from Gilligan's Island) or the voice from SiriusXM Yacht Rock Radio. Keep your suit and tie in the closet. 

The Racine Yacht Club is for those who desire to be near or on the water. Did you know that more than 30% of our club members don’t even own a boat but get out onto the water regularly? Don’t  they  say, “it is all about who you know.” Join us and you will meet and get to know boat owners and enthusiasts. Did you know the RYC has a boaters program putting those who have boats and do fun things on the water with those who want to get onto the water and do fun things? 

Imagine being at a place that makes you feel like you are on vacation year-round. Enjoy dinner or a drink with the best view in the area. Our view must be experienced to be appreciated! 

Whether you are joining as a way to break the monotony or beat the stress. Maybe you are considering owning a boat but need mentoring before you make the jump. Maybe you just want an affordable place to slip and store your boat, the RYC is all of these and much more.  

When considering how you will spend your time relaxing and recreating consider an affordable lifestyle with us, “ A private club for those that love the water and good friends! We  are  that second home you have been looking for. 

Racine Yacht Club is a long lasting establishment since 1916, serving the community, social members and the yachting world.

We believe that for a very reasonable cost, Racine Yacht Club offers many ways to increase your boating pleasure, skills and knowledge --- along with building a lasting camaraderie  with others who enjoy Lake Michigan. For additional information, please call (262) 634-8587 during our office hours 9:30am - 2:00 pm Monday - Friday; or contact our membership committee.

We manage our own slip system and dry sail area (with a 2-ton hoist) and we have transient dockage for our guests.

Staying overnight on your boat? Freshen up in the morning with our clean showers and  locker room facilities - maybe you want to take in a Sunday Brunch. It's all here at Racine Yacht Club.

Interested in a Slip as a member or a Slip for transient dockage?

 There are many parties during the year, and our galley serves tasty, reasonably priced fare several days of the week. 

Our regatta week is great fun, and our fully stocked bar facility is at the center for many a tale of the high seas. Stop in an watch the game on our flat panel televisions and enjoy drinks and fellowship. 

Don't forget our special events that make our club unique.  Our entertainment committee keeps thing hopping all year long. 

Also, RYC members can reserve the Club for private parties, large or small.

The History of Racine Yacht Club

Racine Yacht Club 1914

The city of Racine and Racine Yacht Club enter into a lease agreement on April 18, 1928.  The city of Racine moved the club to the water's edge from east of Michigan Boulevard and South of Barker Street to the location where the present Richter Building is. The city provided the foundation and city water but no plumbing.

Racine Yacht Club 1928

In 1929 after a spring storm where the water encroached on the building after only being in its new location one year.

    In 1934, tragedy struck for three members on the 34 foot yacht "Spray" that set sail on a Saturday night, to enter a series of races at South Shore Yacht Club.  The boat was owned by Oswald Aul and Harold Sustachek. 

     At midnight the boat was struck by a sharp gust of wind and the boat took on a large quantity of water where the deck was scarcely a foot out of the water.  The waves washed the three sailors into the water several times. 

    Two of the three sailors died that night as the wind and seas took their toll on the yacht.  Irving Uhlir and Tom Graham both drowned,  leaving Herman Jansen as the only survivor.  Jansen clung to the mast for 14 hours until the Racine Coast Guard could get to him.  The other two crew members could not hold on.

    The "Spray" was known by almost every sailor by sight.  Sailors said there was something distinctive about her lines. She was built in 1901 for a Chicago sportsman.

      Otto Wadewitz  was  commodore at the time starting in 1933 and would serve at the helm for five continuous terms through 1937. This achievement has not been surpassed.

    Otto lead the Racine Yacht Club through the worst years of the Great Depression.  He became the club's benefactor as well as commodore and helped it to survive financially during those troubled years.

Otto Wadewitz next to the Star Fleet

    Wadewitz found the cold winter breezes off of Lake Michigan a bit harsh and headed south to Mobile Bay where Fairhope Yacht Club was founded.  Otto is seen in the picture to the left standing by the early Star fleet.

    Otto was later memorialized by the club when their board of governors named a new 210-foot timber dock in his name during gala ceremonies in 1955. The Racine Yacht Club is still very much in existence and is known as one of the finest yachting organizations on Lake Michigan.

How Much is a Yacht Club Membership? 3 Common Price Ranges

The cost of an annual yacht club membership can vary widely depending on several factors, such as the location of the club, the amenities offered, the exclusivity of the membership, and the size of the yacht being accommodated. We’ve compiled a set of guidelines below to help you estimate what you can expect to pay for an annual yacht club membership.

Local or Less Exclusive Yacht Clubs

These clubs might offer basic amenities such as docking facilities, a clubhouse, and some social events. Annual fees can range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars. Membership fees could be as low as $500 to $2,000 per year.

Mid-Range Yacht Clubs:

These clubs may offer more extensive amenities, including high-quality dining facilities, repair and maintenance services, fitness centers, and a busy calendar of social and boating activities. Annual fees for these clubs can range from $3,000 to $10,000 or more.

Prestigious or Exclusive Yacht Clubs

The most exclusive yacht clubs, often located in prime locations with extensive facilities and services, can have annual membership fees that are significantly higher. These can range from $10,000 to $30,000 or more per year, with some of the most elite clubs costing even more. Additionally, these clubs might have initiation fees that can range from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars.

It’s also important to note that many yacht clubs have additional costs beyond the annual membership dues. These can include initiation fees for new members, monthly minimum spending requirements at the club’s facilities, and additional fees for docking, storage, and maintenance services.

Additional Considerations

Some yacht clubs require yacht ownership as a prerequisite before being accepted into the club. Hence, while the yacht club membership itself might only be between $500 and $2,000, the true price of a yacht club membership might be tied to the cost of ownership of your yacht as well.

Bottom Line: Simply Ask If Interested

If you’re interested in joining a yacht club, make a list of yacht clubs that you might be interested in joining, and reach out to them via email or phone to get the most accurate and up-to-date information. Most yacht club members are quite friendly and are willing to help those who are interested in joining.

We wish you good luck in your yacht club search, and hope that you were able to find this article helpful.

Fortunately, there are yacht clubs all over the country that would love to welcome you as a brand-new member. You can enjoy an afternoon on the water with a beautiful yacht in exchange for a small sum of money.

To give you an idea of what you could expect to pay for your yacht club membership, here are some numbers gathered from across the country:

What are the Cheapest Yacht Clubs?

The cheapest yacht clubs charge just under $1,000 per year for membership. While this does give you access to different types of experiences, you may be disappointed by the overall amenities.

Some yacht clubs are known for their extravagant country club styles that help you to embrace a particular lifestyle. They include Olympic-sized swimming pools, state-of-the-art tennis courts, and fine dining.

Everything has a beautiful waterfront view. It can feel like you are in the middle of an idyllic paradise without ever even having to leave the shore. If this is what you can gain from the most expensive yacht clubs, you should set your expectations much lower for the cheaper yacht clubs.

The cheaper yacht clubs lack the community aspect of these exclusive options. They feature dry slips and the occasional party, but not much more.

Some of them may have the feel of a county park with some picnic benches, outdoor grills, and a moderately sized swimming pool. Expect a much more casual atmosphere when you choose to go with a cheaper yacht club.

It is even possible that they are simply “paper yacht clubs” that do not even maintain a physical building of their own.

How Much Do the Most Expensive Yacht Clubs Cost to Join?

The most expensive yacht clubs can vary a great deal in price. Most of them will cost between $3,000 and $4,000 per year. However, you can certainly find more exclusive clubs that will cost above and beyond this.

Keep in mind that these more expensive clubs generally are not open to the public. They are offered by invitation only and you must have a member sponsor you to be considered for entrance.

When you are paying for a more expensive yacht club, you should make sure that you are really going to get your money’s worth. These expensive clubs promote a certain type of elegant lifestyle.

Make sure that you are planning to take advantage of all the amenities available from one of these clubs before you sink too much money into the membership fees. The social aspect of these expensive yacht clubs is extremely important.

If you plan to simply rent a boat from time to time, you might be able to go with a cheaper yacht club.

What Is Generally Included in the Membership Fee for Yacht Clubs?

Have you been wondering why you should join a yacht club? Many potential members want to know what they can expect from their membership fees before they commit to a year-long contract. There are many advantages to signing up for a membership with a well-known yacht club.

Amenities and Activities

First and foremost, you get access to activities and cruises planned by board members. These might be various sailing activities, dinners, get-togethers, tennis matches, or other events that take up a lazy Sunday afternoon.

You also gain access to any amenities that surround the yacht club’s marina. For many programs, this means a fitness center, pool, and tennis courts. Several locations also offer fine dining, meeting rooms, and more.

It is like a private oasis where you can get away from the hustle and bustle of the regular world. Time moves slowly when you’re enjoying the amenities here.

Many yacht clubs have programs that introduce children (and adults!) to sailing. Take classes to learn more about improving your technique, sailing safety, and other important aspects of life on the open water.

Access to the Fleet

The main reason why most people join yacht clubs is to be able to rent out boats instead of purchasing their own. Joining a yacht club may give you access to an entire fleet of yachts that can be reserved for a day or weeks at a time. Some yacht clubs allow you to rent boats for up to ten days at a time.

Others do not allow you to rent out ships. They are primarily geared toward individuals who already own a yacht or will own a yacht in the future. Make sure you know the difference in advance.

Are There any Additional Costs Besides the Membership Fees?

Unfortunately, the membership fees are not the only cost associated with joining a yacht club. Most of the clubs in the United States also have a one-time initial fee that tends to cost thousands of dollars. Many will range from $1,500 to $5,000 depending on the location and the exclusivity of the yacht club.

This one-time fee should be the only additional money you pay except for fuel. Most yacht clubs do not cover the cost of the fuel used in the ship during your rental if renting is an option. Be prepared for what this could cost you.

If you cause damage to the ship, you can also expect some out-of-pocket costs. Insurance should cover the damage, but you will likely be asked to cover the cost of the deductible.

Be sure to inquire about how much you may be on the hook for before you sign up for any particular yacht club. Accidents can happen, even to the most experienced sailors. Make sure that you can afford the mishap in advance.

Is a Yacht Club Membership Right for You?

Understanding what the real cost of a yacht club membership is can be the first step toward determining if this is right for you. Many people love the luxuries available through the more expensive yacht clubs, but they may not be able to afford it. Consider what is most important in a club to you before deciding to sign on the dotted line for an annual membership.
