All prospective members (buyers) must complete an application form and deliver a membership payment of $1,000 to Oregon Yacht Club. 

Upon receipt of the application, the new member will be scheduled to appear at the next regularly scheduled OYC board meeting (third Thursday  of each month) to meet the board and gain approval for membership.

Simultaneously with the membership application, we ask all new members to complete and sign an indemnity form.

This form acknowledges that you are aware of various risks associated with the use of the real and/or personal property owned or leased by Oregon Yacht Club Ltd.

We generally change something in the Bylaws every year, so it's a good idea to stay up-to-date. Below is a link to the latest.

It is always useful for new members to read the Bylaws, particularly the section on "Bumps" because your home may not end up where it began.

Not everything you need to know is in the Bylaws. 

Several important rules for shareholders/members are included in our Moorage Rules document. Please read this as soon as possible.

We maintain a contact directory for all members, family members, and others living in your slip. We ask that you keep this information up-to-date as we will periodically publish the complete list.

Unless you specify otherwise, everyone you list below be invited to participate in our community WhatsApp group (it's an app for your phone that facilitates community communication)

Please use the form to tell us about any cars or other motorized vehicles you'll be parking in the main lot and any boats, trailers, campers, etc. that you'll want to place in the boat yard. There is an annual fee for each item stored in the boat yard. All items in the boat yard must be clearly marked with your slip number. The Board Secretary will provide you with an OYC decal for the windshield of every vehicle you park in the main OYC lot.

On this form, you may order one or more gate FOBs at a cost of $35 each, the cost of which will be added to your monthly OYC bill. Each individual may also have their own personal four-digit manual code that can be used to open both the main (drive-through) gate and the walk-through gate. (Note: when you use your 4-digit code at the gate you must precede the number with the pund or hashtag sign, #.)

Our secretary will issue you a key that opens the boat yard gate, our community maintenance shed (at the bottom of the ramp), and the gate to Oaks Park (one key to rule them all).

You will also be issued a parking sticker for each car you register (see Auto and Boat Information above).

Fire safety is something about which EVERY person who lives here should be very familiar. Our safety committee created a very useful guide and a series of videos that walks you through every aspect of fire safety, including how to operate our portable pump. Please take time to watch the videos and familiarize yourself with fire safety as well as attend the next fire drill when it is called.

Before starting construction, be sure to read the ByLaws and Rules documents (below). OYC has a Construction Review Committee (CRC) who can help you understand the guidelines and who will need to sign off on any new construction before it begins. Even if you are not changing the footprint of your home, it is important to have the CRC look at your plans as they are adept at understanding the nuances of the needs of a floating home – sometimes more than architects.
