Greetings  from  Our  Commodore

Welcome to the Solomons Island Yacht Club website. The purpose of the Club is to provide and operate a yachting-centered social organization espousing the values of friendliness that have characterized the Solomons area for decades. Our membership continues to take pride in its reputation as one of the friendliest yacht clubs on Chesapeake Bay. Our members are a fun loving group who enjoy many social activities, including, meetings, dinners, dances and holiday parties in our beautifully maintained clubhouse. We also participate in many boating activities and cruises to destinations all over Chesapeake Bay. SIYC also sponsors special community events throughout the year such as the Blessing of the Fleet, Opening Day Ceremonies and Christmas Boat Light Parade.

The Solomons Island Yacht Club was established in 1937, so we’re proudly celebrating our 75^th year. Located in the heart of Solomons Island at the mouth of the Patuxent River, our clubhouse and docking facilities are within walking distance of many fine restaurants, shops, full service marinas and marine museum. We sincerely invite all card holding members of other yacht clubs to visit us and enjoy our facility while in the Solomons area.

The Commodore
