A number of us had our boats tied up at the Govt. dock; a couple at McGee’s floats and one tied up at Schneider’s float beside his tugboat (now Blue Heron Marina). McGee’s is now the Golden Eagle Marina. I think this must have been 1972. A meeting was held in the High School to organize ourselves and get this yacht club underway.

When Dave and I moved to Gabriola in 1975, we had been members of Nanaimo Yacht Club for many years and had taken an active part in sailboat racing.

Not much was happening on the water at that time, so we initiated a “Once Around the Flat Tops” race. This was open to any boat (including a canoe with sail) […]

In 1975, a small group of sailing enthusiasts whose boats were moored at Schooner Cove formed a loose association to race informally and to cruise together. They called themselves the Schooner Cove United Mariners, which easily contracted to SCUM, an acronym in which its members took a sort of perverse satisfaction. The founding members of SCUM were a mixed lot, some living locally or in Port Alberni. Many of the initial members are still in the Club today. Inevitably the […]

Our history reaches back into the maritime traditions of an earlier century.
