Dear Prospective Member,

There are three options for membership in Duck Island Yacht Club:

1. Become an Active Member and enjoy full privileges, which include use of all Club facilities and moorings. Active membership requires payment of a $500.00 nonrefundable Capital contribution to Duck Island Yacht Club and the 2010 dues, set at $475.00, which include applicable taxes. In subsequent years, you will be obligated to pay only the annual dues set by the Board of Governors.

2. Become a Conditional Member and enjoy full privileges and use of all Club facilities and moorings. However, a Conditional Member may not vote on Club matters, hold office, or propose new members. Conditional membership requires payment of 1/2 of the $500.00 non-refundable Capital contribution to Duck Island Yacht Club ($250.00), an administrative carrying fee of $25.00 and the 2010 dues, set at $475.00, which include applicable taxes. In the second year of membership, you will pay $250.00 (the balance of the $500.00 non-refundable Capital contribution to DIYC), the $25.00 administrative carrying fee, and the annual dues established by the Board of Governors and become an Active Member. In subsequent years, you will be obligated to pay only the annual dues set by the Board of Governors.

3. Become a Social Member. Social Memberships are available for those who do not own a boat, or whose boat is 20 ft or less in length. Social Members enjoy use of all facilities of the Club, except the Club moorings. Social members may not vote on Club matters, nor hold office. Social membership requires payment of the 2010 dues, set at $110.00, which include applicable taxes. In subsequent years, you will be obligated to pay only the annual dues set by the Board of Governors.

Please note that the annual dues will be prorated, as follows, to take into consideration the time of year that you become a member of Duck Island Yacht Club.

100% of dues are paid if you join between January 1 - June 30

70% of dues are paid if you join between July 1 - August 31

30% of dues are paid if you join between September 1 - December 31

During the first year, a new member will serve on the DIYC committee of their choice. They will work with their committee chairman to handle any duties that need to be done to keep DIYC in good repair and running smoothly. We ask that new members attend at least two social events so they will become acquainted with more of the Duck Island membership.
