We are located on the Mississippi Gulf Coast in the
Long Beach Harbor. LBYC is a private club
originally established in 1980 for use by its members,
their families, and guests. The purpose of
our organization is to encourage the sport of boating,
promote the science of seamanship and
navigation, and foster a spirit of cooperation
and good fellowship. We do this through the
active participation and sponsorship of cruises,
races, sail and boating instruction classes and social
gatherings of our membership. We welcome
as guests the visiting members of other yacht clubs in
the Gulf Yachting Association (GYA) as well as members
of other yacht clubs throughout the world.
(Guest privileges follow reciprocity rules)
