Outstation verses Contracted Cruising Destination

Captains,

As you make your cruising plans,  please make sure you take a few minutes  to review QCYC's Outstations and Cruising Destinations.   Choose 'Facilities' drop down box above and then 'Outstation Info and Rates'. You will find separate links to each of our Outstations and Cruising Destinations   There have been some changes over the past year or so.   Please note there are differences between an Outstation and a Contracted Cruising Destination that are provided below:

Many thanks to Bill Brunkhorst for compiling this very useful information.

Definition of Terms:

• OUTSTATION: The Club has two "outstations", Bainbridge and Deer Harbor. The Club owns the Bainbridge location. Deer Harbor is contracted on an annual lease. This lease sets aside 100 feet of specific side tie dock space for exclusive use by QCYC.
• CONTRACTED CRUISING DESTINATION: The Club has numerous discount contracts in place with the listed marinas. These contracts afford a moorage discount as defined below. Unlike the two outstations, the marina places you, if and where they have availability.

The use of all the following incur various charges based on the entries in the QCYC marina registration book found at each location.

For Bainbridge Island and Deer Harbor Outstations

• There is a flat fee of $8 per night, which includes electricity.

For all other Contracted Cruising Destinations:

QCYC will absorb 50% of the Club's negotiated moorage and electrical rate. The club will charge Members the other 50% at quarterly billing cycles. 

• Members are responsible for any other Marina charges. Check the nightly rates when making reservations.
• Advance reservations are required. A Member who makes a reservation and does not cancel that reservation in a timely manner will be charged the Club's full fee as billed by the Marina.
• Members must sign-in and show their membership card.
• Members must fly the QCYC burgee.
• Rafting may be required.
• Contracted Cruising Destinations negotiated rates
  • At the Club’s five Satellite Contracted Cruising Destinations in British Columbia (Port Sidney, Mill Bay, Port Browning, Salt Spring Marina and Telegraph Harbour), the Club’s negotiated rates average 90% of the Marina’s current rates plus shore power upcharge, with applicable exchange rate applied.
  • Dock Street / Tacoma– Between Oct.-April, overnight stays and electricity for QCYC will be charged at 80% of the Marina’s rate. Between May-Sept., QCYC will be charged 100% of the Marina’s rate.
     

In all scenarios, you do not pay the marina for moorage or electrical at that time, providing you follow the applicable reservation, arrival and registration directions. Payment is subsequently accomplished thru the QCYC billing process. All charges will be added to your quarterly QCYC statement and emailed to you.
