Today, the club proudly occupies new facilities at the edge of the Historic Waterfront District, as part of the Muir-Cox Shipyard Museum Complex. The SHYC shares space in the former large vessel building of Harley S. Cox and Sons with the Osprey Arts Centre and Theatre, Shelburne Harbour Marina Association and Shelburne Sailing School Association.

Summer is a grand time in Shelburne, as it is a first-call port for many cruisers traveling from the Eastern U.S. and from other Canadian ports. Several weekly boat races, regattas, club barbeques, the "Parade of Lights"  and other activities are highlights of the season. The food is good, and casual licensed dining on the veranda deck is a treat.

You'll find links to the left for our services and fees, a brief history of the club and information about our many activities, including a calendar of events, plus information about how to find us and about contacting us. If you'd like to know how far you might be from us, click here for our Road to Shelburne page.

Whether you are sailing, motoring or driving the highways, we hope you will stop in for a visit or stay.

On a more recent note, we will once again be hosting the Nova Scotia Schooner Association visit in 2008. The fleet will gather at Shelburne over the weekend of Saturday, August 2nd. Racing starts Monday, August 4th, and continues throughout the week with the final race on Saturday, August 9th.

Shelburne will also be the venue for the East Coast Albacore Championship Regatta between August 22nd and 24th. Download your entry form today!
