A message from Commodore John MacLean

Hello all,

I’m happy to report that the 2015 Annual General Meeting was a success. I’d like to thank the 40+ people who attended and contributed to a thoughtful conversation about the future of the club. Suffice to say, we all agree that we NEED TO BUILD NEW DOCKS. We are well on our way to establishing a membership committee. Also, it was suggested that we have some kind of presence at the Boat Show in ...

A message from John MacLean, Commodore

Hello all,

I hope you are all enjoying the spring boating season. I would like to take this opportunity to let you know about some important goings on with HCYC. We need to have the clubhouse hauled out for an insurance survey this year. This is overdue and has been delayed in past years due to the expense, but we cannot delay any longer. Coincidentally, we’ve been offered the opportunity to have the exterior of the ...

Ahoy there and welcome to our 40th season! Spring is at last upon us (finally). I think we can seafely say farewell to that season whose name we do not mention.

HCYC’s 2014 season kicked off with the annual New Year’s Day Commodore’s Levee

Ahoy there and I hope you all enjoyed the holidays!

As you all know we held our 39th Annual General Meeting at National Yacht Club. The agenda was quite full, discussions on various items were plentiful and a great atmosphere with libations was enjoyed by all.

It has been an apparent whirlwind of a boating season. Here we are in late August and it feels like we just launched.

We kicked off the official boating season on June 15 with the annual Sail Past and Commodore’s Reception. This was a shared effort with the Toronto Island Sailing Club (TISC) and in concert with the Toronto Island Marina (TIM) Season Opener. We had a fantastic turn-out, opening the fleet to TIM resident non-HCYC members, with 17 boats partaking. ...

On Saturday, November 10, 33 members and their guests gathered in the Green Room at PAL Place for the Annual General Meeting chaired by Commodore Nigel Napier-Andrews. The high point of the year was the completion of our new deck, he said, and we have also had an unusually good intake of new and mostly younger members thanks to the efforts of Alan Laver. More cruisers were out on the water thanks to the encouragement of Matt Phillips.

After much effort from a stalwart crew of volunteers, the new deck on the shore of Long Pond across from the clubhouse is finished but for a few details. Designed by our Bosun Blaine Evans, the deck quickly grew from the ground up on the first session on Sunday, June 22. Work slowed through the summer with a few boards being added here and there by ad hoc volunteers, but picked up again with good sessions late in July and ...
