Berkeley Yacht Club Perks for Modern Members

February 1, 2025

Modern Sailing has been awarded "Adjunct Organization" status as identified in the Berkeley Yacht Club bylaws. An Adjunct Organization is a boating-related organization such as a sailing school, school sailing team, and another yacht club whose members may apply for Adjunct Membership. This means that Modern Sailing club members can now apply for Adjunct Membership with BYC.

BYC members also benefit from the relationship between BYC and Modern. BYC members can enroll in Modern Sailing's ASA courses and pay the discounted member rate.

In summary:

Modern Sailing Members

  • Can apply to join BYC with an Adjunct Membership, no initiation fee, only $144 annually
  • As an adjunct member, receive reciprocal benefits being offered by other local yacht clubs with reciprocal relationships

    I would like to compliment Stan Lander for his coaching, counseling and teaching Heavy Weather Offshore Sailing. Stan was very accommodating to all of the student's interests and shared his many years of insight on handling the boat in heavy seas. I would certainly recommend Stan and this course to sheltered waters sailors. My confidence in handling a boat of this size was certainly enhanced by the experience.

  • John Kipping

    The meeting room was quite adequate and the location most convenient, but the course outline and instruction were outstanding. Modern Sailing is fortunate to have such a well organized instructor in Mr. Stan Lander who teaches very well from a rich professional background. Mr. Lander was generous with his time and patiently in helping students who needed more attention or time in understanding various aspects of the curriculum.

  • Emma & George Stubbs, Sausalito

    We just took our ASA 106 at a school in Rhode Island as we prepare for 6 months of cruising in the Caribbean. The class was great, but more than anything it made us really appreciate the quality of teaching and rigor at Modern Sailing. Even though we were the newest to sailing, the group seemed to think that we had the best fundamentals. We felt very well prepared and we see why Modern Sailing has the reputation it does.

  • Esther C

    I took ASA 101 with them recently. They have the best customer service I've ever seen! I mistyped my address when I signed up online so didn't receive the textbook. I called and the lady immediately sent me another copy! Everyone at the club is super friendly.

  • Ray Arceneaux

    The vessel was clean and in fine condition - very nice boat for training, well-equipped.
