Welcome to Mattapoisett Yacht Club Cruising Group. Our group is dedicated to members joining other members on all kinds of cruises throughout the Massachusetts and Rhode Island cruising areas. Cruises are rather free form; you are always free to join in at any point along the way or head off on your own when ever you wish. Join with other cruisers and you may find new interesting places to go, new things to see, and new sailing friends that you will enjoy hanging out with. If you have never cruised before, we'll be happy to help you get started.
This year we are making a special effort to reach out to power boaters. Cruising is much more about being in interesting places with interesting people, than how you got there.
For general questions about MYC Cruising, contact the Cruise Chairman, Carlos DeSousa at CruisingChair@MattapoisettYC.org.
Each individual cruise has an assigned Cruise Captain who is responsible for disseminating information to those who have expressed possible interest in participating and who is the clearinghouse for information passed between individual cruisers and the rest of the group. For questions about a specific cruise, contact that cruise's Cruise Captain.
Further details about each individual cruise can be obtained by clicking on the adjacent yellow cruise name on the left side of your screen.
If you are not a MYC member, but are considering joining, we'll be happy to have you along. Just pass on your contact information the the Cruise Chairman.

This cruise will start from Mattapoisett on Friday August 11th with destinations Tarpaulin Cove or Menemsha depending on weather and wind directions. The meteor shower will be peaking in the night of August 12th to 13th. These two destinations have little to no light pollution which makes the spectacle even better and easier to see. On top of that this year the event will be close to the new moon which means the sky will be at its darkest for the viewing of shooting starts. The Saturday happy hour will be on the beach at either destination.
Further information will be provided as we approach the date. Cruise Captains Jean & Nancy |
