Does anybody need our mortgage? We are booked in for Friday night to Monday so three nights. Please advise ASAP. Thank you.
Welcome to the home of the Macgregor Yacht Club of British Columbia. We are a group of present and past Macgregor Yacht and Tattoo Yacht owners. Most of our members are in British Columbia, Canada, although we do have members from other places in Canada and the USA.
We organize on and off the water activities for owners of Macgregor and Tattoo boats; regattas, cruises, flotillas and our annual all member get together ‘MacRendezvous’. Members share tips, ideas, and hard-come-by knowledge about how to maximize the joy of owning these wonderfully affordable boats.
MYCBC membership provides you with full access to all areas of the website and the ability to participate in all activities. The modest, annual membership fee is $65 for the first year (which includes a club burgee and welcome package) and $35 per year thereafter. Membership in the club is recognized at marine stores and marinas for discounts on supplies and moorage. The saving you can expect will pay back your membership fee many fold.
What’s inside?
•News about the club and its activities
•Forums to discuss Macgregor Boats and Boating in general
•Photo Galleries of boating with the Macgregor
•Event Calendars
•Educational videos and presentations on how to sail and maintain your MacGregor
