Join Lowry Bay Yacht Club

​

Becoming a member at Lowry Bay is easy. You need to have an existing member 'nominate' you, and another existing member 'second' your nomination. 

The best way to do this if you don't already know a member would be to come into the club an hour or two before a sailing event (see the calendar), or on a Friday night and introduce yourself, either to the race officer, the bar staff, or any one of the friendly members.

Someone will show you around and walk you through the process to join, and answer any questions you might have.

​

The club offers a number of membership categories as follows:

Volunteers

Club volunteers are important to our success. There are many areas of the club where volunteers are required, both on and off the water. If you are keen to help in any way, please register as a volunteer with the Club Manager. This can be very rewarding and a good way to meet new people whilst giving back to the sport.

 

Please contact us if you have any questions or just want to find out more about getting involved.
