Edenton Yacht Club was formed in the 1970s by a robust band of sailors with a love for sailing and a desire to build and sustain a vibrant sailing community in Edenton, NC.
EYC conducts Spring and Fall racing series and is a vital member of the Albemarle Sound Sailing Association and co-sponsors the ASSA Regatta. In the past, EYC has also hosted national competitions for Star and Thistle classes. EYC also sponsors Laser Remote Control racing.
No matter what kind of boat you enjoy, all boaters are welcome. We love being on the water and members have powerboats of all descriptions, kayaks, paddle boards, and a few boats that we are not sure what category they fall into.
