Events & Cruising
From spring raft-ups to fall gatherings, AAYC brings boaters together for memorable days on the Chesapeake Bay—on the water and ashore. Our full online event calendar is coming soon.
AAYC Traditions
Our season opens with the annual charity Sock Burning and continues with fleet cruises, raft-ups, destination outings, and member-hosted socials. We close the boating season with the Commodore’s Crab Feast—a favorite AAYC celebration of friendship, food, and time on the Bay.
