OUR DIRECTION
A Club built to participate, serve and endure.
ABYC is being created around a simple purpose: to give Airlie Beach a genuine member Club with a strong maritime identity and a permanent home beside the water.
The Club will connect members through sailing, fishing, competition, dining, recreation, learning, Club occasions and service.
The Whitsundays will not be treated as scenery. The region's climate, boating culture, tourism economy, marine environment and local community will influence how the Club develops and where it directs its energy.
