Esquimalt Harbour Policies
Posted by boats45 on Friday, 31 March 2023Reminder to all members that boats are always to remain 100 metres away from stationary vessels and 200 metres away from vessels underway. All operators are required to contact the King's Harbour Master when ever moving about in the harbour. This is for your safety and the safety of the other harbour users.

Racing Resumes May 18
Posted by Leslie on Friday, 13 May 2022Good news racing skippers, racing will resume May 18 at 1830. There will be growing pains with our Lang Cove location. For you and your crew parking is available on base after 1600 hours. Please consider picking your crew up on B dock rather than using a shuttle boat. As we have lost some of our racing fleet we may make a single start. Past Commodore Chris Maier will be RC for next Wednesday and we will need someone to step forward for the following weeks.
