Rothesay Yacht Club

Proudly established in 1907 on the beautiful KV River.

Welcome to the Rothesay Yacht Club!

For over 118 years, the Rothesay Yacht Club has been a place where sailors, families, and friends come together to celebrate life on the water. Nestled along the beautiful Kennebecasis River, our club is more than a marina — it’s a community built on tradition, camaraderie, and a love for sailing.

Whether you’re here to set sail, learn something new, or simply enjoy the waterfront atmosphere, you’ll find a welcoming home at RYC. From summer regattas and sailing lessons to casual dockside gatherings, there’s always something happening that brings people together.

Come join us — discover the joy of sailing, the strength of community, and the timeless beauty of our riverfront.

Commodore's Message

Established in 1907 along the Kennebecasis River, RYC offers premier sheltered sailing, powerboating, and access to the Bay of Fundy. Over time, we’ve grown into a full-service club with docks, moorings, fuel, and on-site staff. Still, it’s our people who define us—gathering for races, cruises, or quiet moments on the water. At RYC, we honor our heritage while embracing the future with pride and camaraderie.
