The Manila Yacht Club The Country’s Premiere Yacht Club

The Manila Yacht Club (MYC), established in 1927, is a member’s only Club and is the country’s premier yacht club. Considered as a social and sporting Mecca, much of the Philippines boating activities are based at the MYC.

89 years on, the Club remains today, the country’s premiere yacht club due to its strong traditions and rich historic past. The Club is a yachting hub in Southeast Asia committed to the promotion of all forms of water activities.

    My Name is Roy Bowyer and I’m a Past Commodore of the Bobbin Head Cruising Club based in Sydney Australia. I will be visiting Manila in the first two weeks of March and would enjoy a visit to the club probably for dinning purposes. I can arrange a letter of introduction for our current Commodore if required.
    Best regards
    Roy Bowyer
