StABYC is known, among other things, for its great location, excellent service and friendly people. It is rare to find an organization in Bay County that offers so much to its members; year round boating activities, excellent dining and lounge facilities, numerous youth-oriented events, special member-sponsored events, and much more. Most importantly, we offer an inviting gathering place for family and friends.
As you might expect, boating activities are a high priority here at the Club. Prime dockage, sail racing, and junior sailing programs are but a few of the basic StABYC attractions for boaters. Sailing is available in Club owned boats and programs are available to teach interested adults and children how to sail. We also have a dock, hoist, and boat ramp for assisting you in launching a trailered boat.
StABYC is a member of the Florida Council of Yacht Clubs (FCYC) and the Gulf Yachting Association (GYA) which allows our members to have reciprocal privileges with over 70 Yacht Clubs in the state of Florida and along the Gulf Coast. You do not need to have a boat to enjoy these privileges. We have included in this packet a list of those current clubs.
StABYC isn’t exclusively about boating. There is a full range of off-harbor activities as well. The Club’s Swimming Pool, open May through September, is the hot spot during the summer months. A lifeguard is on duty 7 days a week through the months June and July, and every weekend the remainder months the pool is open. This is for the member’s convenience and safety and there is nothing like relaxing by the pool while you watch the sunset. The Club also has a full-service food and beverage department and throughout the year hosts a number of special theme nights, events and holiday celebrations for members of all ages.
At STABYC, members come first; the dedicated, professional, friendly staff will always do everything possible to ensure that your experience at the Club is a pleasurable and memorable one. Not only is the StABYC a nice place to be, it’s a wonderful place to belong. Please contact our Club Manager, Eugene White and he will set up a time to meet with you, give you a tour of the facility and answer any questions you may have about membership at the St. Andrews Bay Yacht Club.
