Mission Statement

The Edgartown Yacht Club was founded in 1905 to perpetuate the maritime traditions of Edgartown and Martha’s Vineyard. The mission of the Club is to bring together those who have an abiding interest in yachting, sailboat racing, seamanship and competition in the highest Corinthian spirit. The Club seeks to encourage the traditions of excellence and good sportsmanship in tennis, as well as to promote the enjoyment of dining and other social activities. With these ideals in mind, members are encouraged to give freely of their time and talents in order to enhance the quality of life at the Club.
