Tyee Yacht Club

Tyee Yacht Club, situated at 2929 Marine Drive in Portland, Oregon, is a venerable institution that has been a cornerstone of the region’s boating community since its founding in 1954. The club’s name, Tyee, originates from the Nootka Tribe of Vancouver Island, meaning “chief” or “superior,” reflecting its stature and heritage. Located on the Columbia River, the clubhouse and moorage offer a tranquil and scenic setting for members to enjoy various boating activities.

With reciprocal moorage privileges at many yacht clubs in Puget Sound and British Columbia, Tyee Yacht Club offers its members a rich and expansive sailing experience, coupled with lifelong friendships and a deep connection to the maritime community. Its history, combined with its modern amenities, makes Tyee Yacht Club a prestigious and welcoming haven for boaters.
