We sponsor cruises (typically to locations with shopping, restaurants/bars, history, and recreation)…
Land Events
HBYC hosts a wide variety of events at Herrington Harbour South and North (HHS/HHN) including the opening day ceremony, lobster/clam bake, chili cook-off, and turkey fry.
Boat-Themed Travel & Trips
Many members of the Herring Bay Yacht Club coordinate with each other to do small-group travel & trips. These range from trips on commercial cruise ships, small crewed and bare-boat charters in the Caribbean, group travel to boating and island hot-spots, trips to the mega Boat Shows around the country, and more.
Philanthropic and Community Service
HBYC believes in supporting our community… and are proud to run food drives for our neighboring communities. We have also participated in hosting events for the Wounded Warrior Day-On-The-Bay in recent years.,
Eco-Friendly Marina Support
HBYC works closely with the Herrington Harbour marina team to support the ecological goals of our award-winning eco-marina and the Chesapeake Bay.
Legislative Advocacy
Herring Bay Yacht Club (HBYC) works to preserve the boating and environment of the Chesapeake Bay. Each year, HBYC members are selected to participate in the Chesapeake Bay Yacht Club Association (CBYCA) with a focus on legislative issues of concerns to our members.
Hosting Visiting Yacht Clubs
As a member of the Yachting Clubs of America, Herring Bay Yacht Club also plays host to other YCA yacht clubs that visit the Herrington Harbour Marinas over the summer. This gives us a chance to interact with even more like-minded boaters during the season… and builds strong relationships between our respective clubs.
