Dear Prospective Member,
I’d like to take a moment to introduce you to one of the best reasons for living here in Fairfield Harbour; the Fairfield Harbour Yacht Club! FHYC was established in 1984 and has, over the last four decades, become an integral part of the boating lifestyle here on the Neuse River and surrounding waterways for hundreds of boating enthusiasts! We’d like to encourage you to think about becoming one of them as a new member!
Fairfield Harbour Yacht Club is unique in that unlike other clubs, we offer memberships only to those who reside in Fairfield Harbour. Our on water activities include local and regional cruising opportunities for both power and sail boats, racing for sailors, and raft ups for both power and sail boaters. Our boater education programs, social engagement, and community involvement, all combine to give you a rich and meaningful membership experience and make for a compelling, rewarding use of your recreational time.
You’ll meet and mingle with some of the most interesting people in our community; some have years of blue water sailing experience, many have cruised the East Coast and intracoastal waterway, others have accomplished the Great Loop, and still others are relatively new to boating or have stayed closer to home. No matter your experience level, the sort of boat you own, or your boating plans, you’ll make new friends and find something of genuine interest at FHYC!
Compared to other clubs, membership costs are quite low. We own no buildings and have no paid staff. Annual membership dues cover basic operational costs, and generally, each activity is self funded. Events are planned and managed by members actively serving on one of several committees. It’s this member engagement that makes the club work!
I invite you to take a few minutes to look through the enclosed information, and perhaps take a look at our website to get to know a little more about us. Then, contact one of our membership representatives and learn how you can be a part of something truly special!
“Join the Adventure”
