Welcome to the Northport Yacht Club


The Northport Yacht Club was founded in 1939 in the village of Bayside in Northport Maine. 


Our mission as stated in the original charter:

  • To encourage the sport of boating and sailing;
  • To promote the science of seamanship and navigation;
  • To provide members with an opportunity to participate in a variety of boating and/or social activities;
  • To provide and maintain a suitable clubhouse for recreation and use by our members.


The Northport Yacht Club is much more than a club for boaters and boat owners. The club has always taken the fulfillment of the social aspects of our charter directives seriously. Only a minority of our members participate in sailing races or go on club cruises. Most join simply to have fun, meet people and participate in social activities in and for the general Bayside Community. It is the social aspects of the club that keeps members coming back.

A note from our Social Chair:


Summer 2026 is right around the corner, and I couldn’t be more excited for another amazing season at the club! Our social calendar is shaping up to be fun.This summer will bring a great mix of new events and favorite traditions. We’re especially excited to introduce Adult Bingo - sure to be a fun, laughter-filled night - and Chowderfest, which promises to be a delicious new highlight for everyone to enjoy.


Thursday nights will be a weekly favorite, featuring our new "DockTales" hour with complimentary appetizers and all grilled items on the house! And of course, we’ll continue our wonderful potluck tradition-so, please bring a dish to share and keep the community spirit going strong. All our beloved events will be back in full swing, including the Fourth of July Kids Games, the Annual Cocktail Party, Donuts on the Deck, raft ups, and the always-popular Pancake Breakfast. These traditions are what make summers in Bayside so special.


We encourage all members to get involved and help make these events a success. Please consider signing up through SignUpGenius to volunteer your time and talents - it truly makes a difference! Be sure to visit the NYC website and check out the Events page for a complete listing of this summer’s activities. Here’s to a fun, relaxing, and memorable Summer 2026 at Northport Yacht Club. See you at the dock!


Warmly,

Jen Lannan
