About CRYC  
Fired Up

 

Life's too short to float when you can cruise...

Boating is only the beginning of what makes Columbia River Yacht Club (CRYC) a special place for you and your family.  This Club is about having fun.  Whether it be one of our ten annual cruises, a dinner dance, a Thursday Night Men’s Dinner, or even just a Saturday lunch, there us always something to do and fun to be had at CRYC.  You are welcome to be as involved as you want to be.  Our member volunteers work together to plan the events, participate in the entertainment, and slap on an apron to barbeque some steaks.  No matter your age or the size of your boat, when you come through the Club gates, you are just a fellow boater enjoying all that the Club has to offer.

  • The "E&E PaddleFish" cruise barge is taken on many of the clubs annual cruises
  • Exclusive fueling facility including water fill and pump out stations

 

Joining The Club...

 

As a private Club, membership application is initiated by sponsorship from an existing CRYC member along with two additional member co-sponsors.  It’s easy to recognize and meet our Club members out on the river because we all proudly fly our trademark yellow and blue burgee.  Many Portland boat dealers are CRYC members.  They can introduce you to us and us to you.  In all, membership process takes approximately 45 days which allows time for you to attend a number of Club events and get acquainted.  For more details about CRYC, please contact our Membership Chairman through the Club office (503) 289-6561 / (800) 646-2792 or email us at Membership@CRYC.com
