dining, an outstanding bar plus an
outdoor bar and grille next to the
beautiful pool, a children's
playground and two tennis courts. There are
53 slips

service, water and pump-out facilities at every slip. We can
accommodate visiting yachts from other yacht clubs in the Florida
Council. Call 954-566-7886 for reservations.
CRYC is the
"Club that loves to party." As you surf this site, check

They range from the informal to costume to black tie. We have an
active cruisers group with monthly group cruises to locations along the
south eastern coast to the keys to the islands. if you are a

Bring the kids or volunteer to help. We are creating a
program to teach children of all ages how to sail and to acquaint them with
water safety rules.
After demonstrating their knowledge of the basics they will
be able to participate in race
s
and small trips in the area.
