Hi Folks – right around the corner near winter island you’ll notice that Abbott Rock was destroyed (again) over the winter. If you want to support its reconstruction please add your contact info and forward to the USCG below. Normally we’d have this posted at the club, but with limited operations underway we wanted to ensure everyone had an opportunity to support this.

SWYC Deck, Float, House and Launch rules during COVID-19 based on State guidelines
Updated 5/29/21
In accordance with the state’s May 29th COVID-19 guidance the SWYC COVID-19 team is pleased to rescind all SWYC COVID-19 Rules and protocols.
The team strongly encourages all non-vaccinated members and guests to follow the state guidance in wearing masks and social distancing in order to minimize the potential spread of the virus by non-symptomatic carriers.
Please bear in mind that some at-risk members may feel more comfortable continuing mask and social distancing protocol and we ask all to respect their choice.
The COVID team wishes to express their gratitude to the Board of Governors for their unwavering support of the team’s efforts, and their dedication to preserving the health and safety of the membership.
The team would also like to express their appreciation to the SWYC membership for their cooperation and patience during this past year of challenge and uncertainty, and wishes all a happy and healthy 2021 boating season.
Now, let’s all enjoy all the wonderful things Salem Willows Yacht Club has to offer.
Another wonderful evening at the Commodore’s Ball! We had a blast. Thank you to Bill Lord and all the helpers – Tony Brooks, Jodi Jarvis, Laurie and Mike Madison, Carol and Phil Vachon, Elvira and Lou Schoenthal and everybody else who pitched in to make the evening so special! Thank you to photographer Jonathan Rodgers for the wonderful photos.
