Cruising Events

The Cruising Committee organizes social and boating events for all LCYC members to enjoy. Not a "cruiser?" Not a problem! All members are welcome at all cruising events, just bring your love of boating on the lake (and beyond!). Enjoy being part of an LCYC fleet heading together toward a favorite anchorage. Cruising also means having a good time sharing stories of boating adventures, and trading tips on things like anchoring, provisioning, or electronics.

See below for this season's schedule. Contact cruisinglcyc@gmail.com to be added to the cruisers listserve for updates and destinations - which often change with the weather. Cruisers typically monitor CH72 when out on the lake. Look for details and RSVP info in the regular announcements to all members.

Potlucks and Captains Hours begin at 17:00.
For cruises, boats often start leaving LCYC around 9:00 - members are welcome to join when and where they can. Destinations will be announced.

Club

LCYC is a member-run yacht club located in a sheltered cove on the southwest shore of Shelburne Bay in Shelburne, Vermont, USA. 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.

Lake Champlain offers some of the best freshwater cruising in North America. The beautiful scenery and charming lakeside destinations make it a great place to explore. LCYC organizes several rendezvous events. Spontaneous cruising events also materialize throughout the season. We have a number of scheduled events planned for the summer season. Cruisers are out and about just about every weekday and weekend throughout the summer.
