Lake Champlain Yacht Club

Shelburne, Vermont, USA — 1887-2013

Lake Champlain Yacht Club

The Lake Champlain Yacht Club is a member-run yacht club located in a sheltered cove on the southwest shore of Shelburne Bay in Shelburne, Vermont. We offer moorings, activities, and community for our members, most of whom own a sailboat or powerboat. The object of the Club is to promote and encourage boating and sailing on Lake Champlain, while emphasizing racing, cruising, and education, without financial gain.

Race Registration

Please register before the season starts! This makes it much easier for our volunteer scorer. Thank you to everyone who has already registered!

The Lake Champlain Yacht Club invites you to participate in our saiboat racing program for the 2014 season. Racing is open both to members and non-members of LCYC. We offer Weekend and Wednesday evening racing in four fleets: Spinnaker, Jib & Main, Etchells one-design, and Sportboats. There is also an eight event series for Etchells and Sportboats.

Please sign in to the LCYC website before registering, or you will get an error message! If you registered last year, this will bring up all of your information and you will only have to choose the races you plan to do! You can login with your email address or username (Full Name with spaces), and your password. Resetting your password is easy if you can't log in. Please email admin [at] lcyc [dot] info if you have any problems at all.

CLICK HERE TO REGISTER ONLINE FOR THE 2014 LCYC RACING SEASON

In order to race and be scored, all participants in our racing program must complete and submit to LCYC a 2014 race registration form, and non-members must pay applicable non-member racing fees. In addition, each boat must have a current Lake Champlain PHRF rating, obtained by submitting a Lake Champlain PHRF Form. Racing is free for LCYC members and members of MBBC, VSC, and RSYC. Guest racers who are not members of any of those clubs may race in weekend PHRF races for free, but must pay a fee of $206 to race in the Wednesday evening series and/or the Etchells/Sportboat series. This year, we are happy to accept payments via PayPal!

LCYC RULE: All LCYC members who race shall volunteer or be assigned by the Regatta Committee to serve as race committee approximately once every other season. Please signup via the RC Signup sidebar on the right, or through the Events list or Calendar. Select an event and volunteer on the same page. You need to be logged into the LCYC website.
