Cruising is so much more fun as part of a group!
One of our most popular events of the summer for the last ten + years has been the annual KYC Cruise to Edgartown over the July 4th weekend, with at least a dozen KYC boats going every year for between 3 and 5 days.
Activities in Edgartown usually include dinghy trips to Chappaquiddick Island/Cape Poge Bay, Lighthouse Beach and/or South Beach, a cocktail reception on the deck of the Harbor View Hotel (tentatively scheduled for Saturday afternoon, July 2nd this year), parade viewing along Main Street or North Water Street and one of best fireworks displays around on the night of the 4th (both of which are back “on” per the Selectman’s office). Reservations may be booked via Dockwa.
Please contact Jerry Murphy at rear-commodore@kyc.us with any further questions and/or after you have rec’d your Dockwa confirmation with your arrival date.
