WELCOME!

As the 2012 PLYC commodore I would like to welcome you to the exciting world of the Port Ludlow Yacht Club. The PLYC gives our members the opportunity to enjoy sail, powerboat and numerous social activities together. Our active membership, through their volunteer efforts, makes all of these diverse boating and social activities fun and a success.

The Wreck Room, our yacht club facility, is the center of many of our social activities and we encourage visiting adult yacht club members to take the short walk up from the marina and join us as our guests. Our volunteer members plan many diverse social activities to take advantage of this facility.

PLYC members race sailboats, and cruise from Olympia to the Canadian Gulf Islands and further north together. A look through this Web site gives examples of our numerous activities and how we utilize the PLYC to help take advantage of the Port Ludlow community, the Olympic Peninsula, and the surrounding beautiful waters.

Join me in my goal of “Living Our Dreams Together” in this beautiful boating paradise.
