Racing & Regatta at Deep Cove Yacht Club

Set Sail for Fun, Friendship & Fierce Competition!

Every September, the Deep Cove Yacht Club comes alive with the energy of sails, salt air, and serious fun as we host our annual Deep Cove Regatta, sponsored by Martin Marine. It's more than just a race—it's a weekend-long celebration of sailing, community, and good times! Whether you're a seasoned skipper or new to the sport, this is the event to mark on your calendar.

Step into our clubhouse and you'll see it…wall-to-wall trophies, each with its own story of salty triumph. We're proud of our rich racing heritage, but even prouder of the incredible people who keep the spirit alive today. From keelboat racing series and junior dinghy sailing, to weekend fun sails and our ever-popular Deep Cove Rally in June, there's something here for every kind of sailor.

Don't have a boat? No problem! Many of our racers are always looking for crew. Email our Fleet Captain with your contact details and you'll be warmly welcomed aboard.

But wait, there’s more... the Saturday night of Regatta weekend isn't just about sails—it’s about sounds and flavors too! Join us for a rockin’ social party featuring live local band, the Scott Riddell Band and local food truck eats by Indish Catering. There’s plenty of time to connect with old friends (and make a few new ones). Whether you're racing or just here for the vibes, it’s one of the most anticipated events of the year!

We welcome sailors from all over, including friends from Vancouver Area Racing Circuit (VARC), Centennial Sailing Club, Burrard Yacht Club, and beyond. Whether you’re racing, crewing, or cheering from shore, there’s a spot for you in our vibrant sailing community.

To get involved, reach out to our Fleet Captain Tony Smith - chair.fleet@deepcoveyc.com

This year's racing season is shaping up to be full of excitement - come and be part of the action.

We’ll see you on the water!
