EYC is always lovely. The atmosphere is chill and unpretentious. The people are friendly. They have the cutest events for adults and kids. Last night they were showing a movie out back in the grass overlooking the water. The regular menu is great. Lots of options for all kinds of eaters. The event menus can be a little lacking but the staff will make special requests if you ask. The staff are friendly and very kind.

Went there recently at 90+ F and their AC was out. Limited menu selection, not likely will go back. Service was above average

We came here as part of the "reward/fun" portion of our 2-1/2 day Board Meeting in Annapolis. And the planners had a reception on the patio portion of the Club after our boat (not yacht nor sail) cruise ride. Drinks available as we mingled with each other along with local guests from the Baltimore Section and including one from Naval Academy. We then proceeded to the buffet style dinner . . Various options from mozzarella & tomatoes, crab dip & bread, Mac & cheese, beef tenderloin (petite size and tender - I don't really like steak that much but was looking for protein) and then realize the other side had mini crabcakes! I used the veggies from the platter to dip into the crabdip. Since the room we were in was also how the wait staff entered/exited from the kitchen, it was very noisy as different people were rushing in or out. It seemed like all of our wait staff were good.

Great dinner with a view

Horrible food. Service is top notch but cannot compensate for bad food specials horrible and waited for over 30 minutes for dessert finally cashed out without it

Great kitchen with very good pub food. One of the best views in Annapolis. Regular specials at eastportyc.org. Very good happy hour prices.

Hey! I'm with the Sea Scouts sailing group ya'll recently were so great to host, and I just wanted to say how wonderful a time I had, thanks so much for everything, it was so great to meet Ms. Burke, and I can't wait to again next cross paths! Thanks!

I was excited to go back to the Eastport yacht club after several years. The club has been tastefully renovated but done in a way that it is still comfortable. The food was good and I would love to go back if invited back.

The view from the bar at Eastport Yacht Club

Best View of Annapolis. Bring your yacht club card and enjoy the great views in the newly built club house. Great treat!

One of my happy places! Eastport has great food and wonderful drinks at amazing prices, not to mention the incredible views. This is a great place to enjoy a drink after work, a weeknight boat race, and great company. Great people, wonderful, relaxed atmosphere. Truly a wonderful place.

Eastport Yacht Club Lights Parade

Stay tuned, the eastport yacht club's lights parade to celebrate its 42nd year in 2024.

The magical Eastport Yacht Club Lights Parade takes place along the Annapolis Harbor and Spa Creek on the second Saturday in December every year. This annual tradition has been delighting holiday revelers for 40 years!

It all began in the 1980s when  Eastport Yacht Club  (EYC) started. Back then, the club was based in a fourth-floor room with a tiny bar in a complex in what is now  Annapolis City Marina . Some of the earliest members lived on boats in that marina and used the club as their living room, especially after the weather got cooler. Feeling the spirit (pun intended) one December night, a few took to their boats and tooled around the harbor, singing Christmas carols.  1

Because it was so much fun, the EYC members decided to build upon the parade by adding lights to decorate their boats, making it an annual tradition. Although several tour operators sell packages during the lights parade, where you can watch the event on the water, the event is free. (Click here for more tours.) Now, it is an officially sanctioned and sponsored event on the Annapolis & Anne Arundel County holiday calendar.

Where to Watch

Book a cruise, join a friend's boat or watch from the Annapolis city front or Spa Creek Bridge. More great viewing spots are at the end of any street in downtown Annapolis that ends at the water. Pocket parks in Eastport and Murray Hill are also great vantage points for sipping some cocoa and watching the boat parade sail by.

To learn more about the parade's history, read this great blog on Annapolis Discovered .

The tradition has come to be celebrated every year on the Vernal Equinox, the day signaling the beginning of Spring and, more importantly in Annapolis, boating season. The Eastport Yacht Club and the Annapolis Maritime Museum continue to observe this tradition and, with the assistance of social media, sock burning has caught fire across the country — it is now celebrated from Pacific Northwest to New England and even in land-locked areas of Pennsylvania . These days,  the annual Sock Burning event has become quite popular and includes an oyster roast, food vendors, activities, and exhibits highlighting maritime heritage.

August 17, 2024 at Eastport Yacht Club

The 18th Annual CRAB Cup is scheduled for August 17, 2024 at the Eastport Yacht Club in Annapolis, MD. The CRAB Cup is the largest fundraiser of the year for Chesapeake Region Accessible Boating.

In 2023, 88 sailboats participated in a family-friendly, competitive pursuit race to determine who will be the champion of the day. If you are not a sailor but enjoy a day of friendly competition, you can still join in the fun! There is a Poker Pursuit Race for Powerboats and The Skippers Challenge, an online peer-to-peer fundraising competition with great prizes. Proceeds make it possible for CRAB to offer its sailing and boating programs for people with disabilities, recovering warriors, and children from underserved communities at no charge.

The CRAB Cup is the second race in the Triple Crown of Charity. Scroll down to learn more about the Triple Crown and how you can make a difference in the community and win your name on the majestic trophy.

No matter how you choose to participate we appreciate your support and hope you will join us at the award-winning Shore Party!

This regatta has a great purpose and we like to support the cause.”

Shore Party

The CRAB Cup Shore Party brings more than 500 people together each year to support adaptive boating programs.

The party is held at Eastport Yacht Club and starts immediately following the race at 4:00 pm. Entertainment begins with Caiso Steel Drum Band, one of DC’s finest Caribbean bands. The always fantastic Misspent Youth will follow them. They are definitely Maryland’s best cover band! Delicious food is provided by our founding sponsor, Boatyard Bar & Grill. This event has won “Best Fundraiser” from the readers of What’s Up! Annapolis in 2021 & 2022.

Pursuit Race

For sailboats.

In pursuit-start racing, the slowest boats start first and the fastest last; whoever crosses the finish line first, wins.

The CRAB Cup Pursuit Race is open to boats of the following classes: CRAB/Beneteau First 22A, Alerion Express 28, Cal 25 (non-spinnaker), CHESSS (Spinnaker, Non-Spinnaker), Harbor 20 (Full Crew, Singlehanded), J/30, J/70, J/80, J/105, PHRF A0/A1, PHRF A2, PHRF B, PHRF C, PHRF N, PHRF Cruiser, ORC, ORC Cruiser, and Viper 640.

Additional one-design classes will be accepted upon the receipt of six (6) or more paid entries by 2000 hours on Wednesday, 18 August 2021. Boats without a valid PHRF certificate may request a courtesy PHRF rating.

Poker Pursuit

For power boats.

The CRAB Cup Poker Pursuit allows powerboat skippers to join sailors in a day of fun on the water in support of CRAB while competing for prizes. Take your boat to designated locations on the Bay and snap a selfie photograph. Send the picture to the EYC Poker Pursuit link, and you will be sent an electronic playing card. Repeat four times to get a complete five-card poker hand.

Thank you to our 2024 CRAB Cup Sponsors

Triple Crown of Charity

The Triple Crown of Charity Sailing was created in 2018 to recognize the top sailor and fundraiser for The Maryland Cures Cancer Cup, formerly the Leukemia Cup, The CRAB Cup, and The Hospice Cup races.

Skippers must compete in all three races in order to be eligible to win the Triple Crown Trophy. 

The calculation for the winner shall be the order of finish in each race and the amount of funds raised for each race.  The amount of funds raised shall be given a higher multiplier (1.5) in the calculations. 

The skipper with best score in the three races and highest fundraising will be awarded the Triple Crown of Charity Sailing Trophy in October at a public event hosted by the three non-profits at Annapolis Market House downtown.  The trophy will be on display at the Annapolis Adaptive Boating Center in Eastport during the off-season. The winning skipper will receive a “keeper” trophy as well.

How to Win the Trophy

• Must compete in all 3 Races
• Must fundraise

Hey everyone I’m Katy Nastro this is the Beat, the only sailing webseries taking you on, offshore and well wherever the wind may take us. This episode of the Beat will warm your heart as we highlight the Chesapeake region accessible boating program or known to many as CRAB. CRAB’s mission is to help physically and developmentally disabled individuals get out on the water and enjoy sailing at any age. So come along with us through historic Annapolis and enjoy CRAB. So tell us a little bit about CRAB. It’s a local organization Chesapeake Bay and the whole purpose is to get sailors who normally would not be able to get on the water themselves. Out on boats that suit their needs and it’s it’s great we have four boats that have been competing for years in here and anybody who thinks these guys aren’t competitive is mistaken and they need to come out and race against them. it’s it’s a great event. it’s a great way to do something with my limitations and I can do just fine, I’ll sail and I’m competitive and it’s real fun for this for this they have a tiller extension which allows me to do full range of everything to do this is the freedom to get out and on the water and I can do it. Katy you picked the best weekend to be here we have the boatyard bar & grill regatta to benefit crab which is an excellent pursuit start race we got able-bodied and disabled sailors racing against each other on the same same race course it’s awesome and we have some really little kids out there and right up to guys and girls in their 70s and 80s. Loki, tell us about the regatta today it was a great day great weather great wind and a ton of boats so it was a lot of fun so neat to see the CRAB boats out there as well and kind of dicing it up with them to is really neat to see that. Well I’m a lifelong sailor I got injured when I was in college my junior year and then I stopped sailing for a number of years. It was a sport that was not being done at all for disabled people and I moved to the Annapolis area in 2003 and started sailing a lot with CRAB then it’s it’s a great regatta because we get boats from all over the place all sorts of different types of boats we have all sorts of levels of racers and people are just here have fun and recognize and support CRAB. It is so much more important to me to support the local people that are quadriplegics have no legs or want to get out on the bay that is so local so important that is why we do the CRAB regatta every year. Once a month crab hosts a sale free event where they invite any disabled people their families caregivers and friends to experience the joy of sailing newcomers and old comers who have sailed with CRAB in the past are all encouraged to come down and enjoy the wind and water. It just it’s a chance to get people out sailing who normally don’t have that opportunity and you know we have people with physical disabilities we also get people with intellectual disabilities as well as we work with the Annapolis police with at-risk youth so we get a little bit of everything. It’s good days you see people come back they’re just so happy you know we’ve had people comment that you know there’s just something they didn’t think they’d ever be able to do again. So Pricilla how long have you been participating in CRAB this other words I think three Wow and you’re how old now 12 so you’ve been doing it for a long time your old pro what’s so great about CRAB? tell us a little bit about the program. Well it helps you experience what happens on a boat. Yeah no it’s it’s awesome to just be out on the water and just feel free right? Yes! It just feels good to work with them and and see the people that thought they couldn’t go sailing at all and there they are out on the water again taking control of the boat and control of something besides their wheelchairs. What do you think about CRAB? it’s phenomenal I’ve told a lot of people about it because we have a lot of friends that are autistic like our son it’s fabulous and it’s very helpful and you know it makes their their day it makes them happy. it’s we’ve got the specially equipped boats and we get people from all over the area we do spinnaker non spinnaker all sorts of one design classes and everybody just loves it in a party which is important is awesome and it’s a great fundraiser for CRAB. Alright that’s it for this episode of the Beat. I hope you guys all enjoyed it and check us out at us sailling.org to see where we’re going next. Check you later.
