Premier Sailing Club on Lake Simcoe
The Lagoon City Yacht Club is a member-run yacht club located in a sheltered lagoon, a short canal ride from Lake Simcoe. 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 Simcoe, while emphasizing racing, cruising, socializing and education, without financial gain. The club was founded in 1964 and celebrated its 55th anniversary in 2019. Contact us to find out how you can become a member of one of the premier sailing clubs on Lake Simcoe.

Slips still available for 2025!
Sailboat Slips and Club Membership available on Lake Simcoe!
Lagoon City Yacht Club has some slips for use this year. We can accommodate boats up to 32 feet and a 5-foot draft. We would like to see that all sailors who wish to be out on the water have that opportunity.
Our club is quite small, with 28 slips. Every slip has access to the land and a narrow side tie dock of about 25 feet. Our clubhouse has a beautiful kitchen and newly renovated washrooms. All of our members know each other and extend assistance for many different circumstances - advice, sailing tips, and help with repairs.
We have an active social calendar, and casual racing takes place on Fridays, followed by a burger and beer supper. During your 10 hours of required membership work hours, you will be integrated into the social fabric of the club.
In addition to the club's amenities, we have access to a beautiful sand beach within walking distance. There are several restaurants in the immediate area, and of course, Orillia is just a 20-minute drive away.
Our fees are reasonable:
Slip fee: $1,365
Annual senior membership fee: $465

Many of our members store their boats for the winter at the local marina within walking distance of the club. We would welcome any inquiries from sailors. Please contact our membership chair at membership@lcyc.com

LCYC Racing & Cruising:
New Mark Coordinates:
‣ A North 44°32.200’ X West 79°13.300’
‣ B North 44°32.200’ X West 79°14.430’
‣ C North 44°31.518’ X West 79°13.855
This gives us the distance of 0.8 nautical miles between marks, without changing any mark to mark bearings. Should make for some quick Friday races.
LCYC Sailpast Memories...
Excitement was in the air on Saturday as we gathered on the grounds to prepare for our first Sailpast in 2 years to honour our Commodores. Boats were dressed for the occasion and at 2 p.m. they left the dock to follow Commodore Doug Hunt in Private Dancer out the channel to the Lake.
Successful Dock Work Party
March 6 saw a keen group of 12 sailors led by Larry congregate at the Club for a work party to refurbish our docks. Punky boards were marked and then the removal began with pry bars & hammers being wielded to remove the deck boards, the side boards and the rubber bumper rail....
