Tender
The Club provides a tender on weekends and public holidays for transport to and from vessels listed on the Club’s register and moored in Kogarah Bay. Priority use is given to those sailing in Club events.
Please refer to the Tender Use Policy for more detailed information regarding the operation of the tender.
BBYC also provides a dinghy, which is available for use by members at any time.
Both the tender and the dinghy are for transport to and from a member’s vessel with fast turnaround required. Neither may be left tied to a vessel or a mooring.
On race days, to enable everyone to be picked up quickly, skippers are requested to pick up and set down crew and equipment at either the Club pontoon or the public wharf, so that only 2 people are transported to or from a mooring.
Dock
The main pontoon dock is available for Full member boat owners to use on weekends and public holidays. Priority is given to boats sailing in Club events, including races, regattas and cruising activities.
Vessels may not be left unattended at the dock without the prior permission of the Club's Rear Commodore or Commodore.
On weekdays, Full member boat owners may contact EB to arrange use of the dock, subject to at least three days notice. No fee applies to Club members.
Swing Moorings
Please contact EB if you would like to rent a swing mooring.
They manage 28 swing moorings near the Club that available for both short and long term rental arrangements.
