The Kelowna Yacht Club boasts a rich history of sailing and racing excellence. Celebrating its 80th anniversary in 2025, the Club has a long and proud tradition on the water. Over the decades, KYC members have achieved notable finishes worldwide and have represented the Club on international stages.
Our race management expertise is highly regarded in the Okanagan, across the province, nationally, and even globally. This reputation has enabled our Fleet Captains and prominent sailors to host regattas that resonate nationally and internationally.
The success of KYC’s racing program is driven by the unwavering support of our members and volunteers from the sailing community. We are deeply grateful for the hard work and dedication of our volunteers.
Joining the Race Committee is an excellent opportunity to engage in one of the club’s most thrilling activities, connect with new people, deepen your understanding of racing and add your name to the distinguished list of volunteers that have come before you.
