The Royal Canadian Yacht Club (RCYC) is a private yacht club in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.[1] Founded in 1852, it is one of the world's older and larger yacht clubs.[3] Its summer home is on a trio of islands (RCYC Island, South Island and North Chippewa or Snug Island) in the Toronto Islands. Its winter home since 1984 has been a purpose-built clubhouse located at 141 St. George Street in Toronto (just north of Bloor Street), which includes facilities for sports and social activities. In 2014, the club had approximately 4700 members, about 450 yachts (95% sail) and a number of dinghies, principally International 14s.
