Default The Sixth Sailor's Sense

It's a marina that added a so-called yacht club so its customers could
free-load off the real yacht clubs that, among other things, extend
reciprocal privileges to members of other recognized clubs.



NMYC has been called that for quite a long time. We closed our club
house because it was not being used enough. The "marina" is actually
privately owned slips. We have a board and a voting comittee. We also
have more services available than any other club on the island by FAR.
There is nothing more upscale than NMYC on the island if you can afford
it. Yes, a slip for a 35 foot boat costs 4500.00 for the summer, but
it's still less than Capri which is over 6K and even nicer if you don't
mind sailing out of the hole.
Oh, and we give discounts to other club members and to BoatUS members.
NMYC gets more transient activity than any other club on the island.
