Welcome to the Member Area of the Yacht Club de Monaco
Q&A
What are the opening hours of the Yacht Club de Monaco?
Access to the Clubhouse is strictly reserved to members of the Yacht Club de Monaco and their guests. The Service Membres is open every day from 9.00am to 10.00pm, except Monday until 6.00pm and on Sunday until 4.00pm. Breakfast is served every day between 12.00pm (noon) and 2.30pm; dinner service is served between 8.00pm and 10.00pm. The Club’s Bar is open every day from 9.00am.
How do you introduce a new member to the YCM ?
Any Society Member of the YCM, with the exception of the Committee Board Members, can sponsor a new candidate. The sponsor’s role when introducing a new member is key. It is their responsibility to help newcomers to integrate into the life of the Yacht Club, not only to accompany and introduce them to other members, but also to involve them in events organized by the Club, be they social or sporting activities.
The candidate needs to fill in an admission form, which is then signed by the applicant and the two sponsors. This form should be picked up from the Services to Members desk by one of the sponsors, and must be accompanied by a letter of introduction from the proposer, explaining the applicant’s motives for joining the Club. Incomplete files will not be accepted.
What are the advantages of becoming a member?
To be a member of the Yacht Club de Monaco is above all a commitment. It is a desire to preserve a certain ethic, both on land and on the water, and to foster a respect for naval etiquette and preservation of the environment. The philosophy of the Yacht Club de Monaco is based on the need to perpetuate but also to pass on a heritage, inherited from our ancestors, to ensure that the Yacht Club remains a lively and progressive place.
To become a member is to embrace a “club spirit” based on loyalty to certain rules and principles, and to disseminate this spirit as widely as possible. It is to encourage each person’s initiatives, to favour dialogue between members, and to defend the values of solidarity and willingness to help all those who love the sea. At the same time it is to ensure yachting is encouraged in a Principality which is always on the move: these are the aims of the members of the Yacht Club de Monaco, who have perfected a certain “Art de Vivre la Mer” in their daily lives… YCM Society Members can access all the facilities of the Clubhouse, the numerous sports and social activities offered all year long as well as many other privileges.
