Brief
History
The Capital City Yacht Club has
an extensive history dating back to early World War II when the club
was organized as a civil defense unit. Over time the purpose and
objectives of the Club have changed to meet the needs of its members
and the community it serves. Today the Capital City Yacht Club is one
of the premier yacht clubs on south Vancouver Island providing
facilities and activities for its 300 active and social members.

Location
Capital
City Yacht Club is located on the south east side of Blue Heron Basin,
which is on the west side of Tsehum Harbour, Sidney BC. There is 100
feet of wharfage at the visitor's dock, as well as extra moorage
available during the summer when member slips are vacant. Beware! There
are sticks marking the channel to get to the yacht club. Depths are
near 5 feet at low tide. (Note that this is not at zero tide, so depths
may be even shallower!)
