south end yacht club
Yes, it’s that time of year again when the South End Yacht Club opens its very exclusive membership to qualified applicants. Commodore Jerry and his shipmates down at the Marina invite any seaworthy skippers among you to apply for a berth among the elite few at our fabulous dock and its newly refurbished ‘Wheelhouse’, once a thriving cannery for the world famous South End Free Range Clam Company. Before the clams made their untimely escape.
Situated on the leeward side of Camano Island and protected from the storms of winter and the radioactive tsunami debris of Japan, South End Yacht Club offers year round moorage and E-Z access to the area’s unmatched water playgrounds. Discover the hidden waterfront of Stanwoodopolis, only minutes away by boat, or venture to fine picknicking at the Head where fishing and crabbing are abundant.
Membership includes year round moorage with water and electric available, live-aboard rights, lighted boat ramp accessible at most high tides, clean Porta-Potties provided and maintained by South End Water Loo, plus free admission the many gala events planned at the Wheelhouse once repairs are complete. Scheduled events this year include Sunday breakfast buffets by Chef Bluebeard and his spatula savvy sailors, the annual June nautical auction and Lost and Found Sale, the ever popular Summer Salsa Dance and Rum Slam, plus much much more.
If you act soon, you’ll receive, as part of your initiation package, a free life preserver, South End Yacht Club epaulets and Captain’s cap in your choice of colors and one free drink at the Backwash, the Wheelhouse lounge ‘where liquor is liberal and the prices are conservative’. Join us now and wet your rudders and your whistle.
South End Yacht Club — the island’s most exclusive gunkhole. Sail to a new adventure on the fabulous South End! Apply today.
