Find your crew. Make it yours.
At Fishing Bay Yacht Club, we know that life changes — and your connection to the Club changes with it. That’s where the Young Adult Member community comes in. Our mission is to make sure your experience at FBYC continues to grow and evolve no matter where you are in life.
Whether you're fresh out of college, settling into a new job, raising little ones, or just looking to stay plugged into an energetic and welcoming part of the Club, YAMs is the place for you.
Why We Exist
The journey through Club life often starts with Junior Week, sailing Optis and finding your first water-friends on Fishing Bay. Then you might head off to college, build new networks, chase big dreams, and maybe drift away from the Club for a while. Eventually, many of us come back — maybe with partners, careers, and families in tow — and look for fresh ways to connect, sail, and socialize.
That’s where YAMs comes in. We're here to keep you connected to the FBYC community through every phase of life. Whether you’ve been here since you were six or just joined last season, this group helps you meet new people, have a blast, and make the most of your membership.
Who We Are
"Young Adult" means something different to everyone — and that’s the point. Our group includes:
-
College students and recent grads
-
Young professionals in their 20s and 30s
-
Couples and young families with kids
-
Members who are “young at heart” and love the energy of a lively, active community
If you’re looking for fun, connection, and meaningful engagement at FBYC, you’ll find your place here.
What We Do
We plan awesome events throughout the year, both in Deltaville and in Richmond. Think:
-
Sailing days and fun races
-
Happy hours and dock parties
-
Family-friendly playdates and pool hangouts
-
Outdoor Movie Nights Under the Stars (popcorn included)
-
Social meetups that make you feel like you’ve known everyone for years
It’s all about bringing people together, on the water and off.
