Our Yacht Club is built upon the following three fundamental principles: 1. To promote the sport and recreation of boating, including the racing, cruising and pleasure of boating out of Bronte Harbour on Lake Ontario 2. To develop seamanship, sportsmanship, and friendship within its members and community 3. To provide and maintain a clubhouse and facilities for its members by its members in a self-help manner where possible. Visitors are welcome to sign in with House Staff, and reciprocal visitors can arrange for dock space within the clubhouse. Visitors from reciprocating clubs can dock near the end of the creek (at the mast crane, just below the bridge) and in vacant members’ slips. The first 3 nights are free for members of reciprocal clubs. VHF 68 is monitored only when the club is open: evenings during the week, beginning at noon on weekends. If you’re arriving during those times, contact the officer of the day. At other times, pull into the visitors’ dock at the mast crane. Services and Facilities: 30-amp power and upgraded water at each dock space, washrooms, showers, ice, picnic tables, gas barbecues, public telephone, and launch ramp are available to members and guests.
