Welcome to the “virtual club house” of Back Creek Yacht Club!
Listen to the BCYC Member's song written by our own Gordon Bowie
BCYC (affectionately pronounced “Backyak”) began in 2001 and has grown into the best “virtual” yacht club on the Bay. We have a good mix of sail and powerboats and we get together for land and sea events on weekends throughout the year.
Our members are dedicated to enjoying each other’s company and the “Glory of the Bay” for the most part on the water! We have a full monthly schedule of events designed to appeal to all types of boaters. Whether you cruise, sail single-handed or crew we guarantee you will find yourself among folks who care about you!
Since we are “virtual”, we take advantage of the many great venues available to us in the Annapolis area for our land events. And when we are on land, we are usually just a few feet away from water.
What is it that we do at BCYC?
BCYC has regularly scheduled weekend rendezvous in local anchorages and marinas - reserve a slip, raft up or drop anchor alone. Either way you are sure to have a fun time! If you enjoy the challenge of a longer cruise, we provide that with our Annual Club Cruise! There are so many beautiful spots to visit and explore on a well-orchestrated 7-9 day cruise. The destination changes each year and you have the pleasure of deciding how you want to participate you can join in for some of it or be adventurous and go the distance. Our membership is as diverse as the boats we sail on and we have events and destinations for everyone. We are a very social and active club striving to optimize our fun on the Bay.
Our committees are well organized and provide our members with outstanding events through out the year.
Our Commodore’s Ball is our only formal event, but we have great fun getting dressed up for various theme parties, from James Bond spy activities to treasure hunts and Mexican Fiestas.
