Eau Gallie Yacht Club (Melbourne, FL, near Statute Mile 914)
Eau Gallie Yacht Club is located behind Dragon Point, off the Indian River section of the AICW. They are also just south of Telemar Bay Marina.
Eau Gallie Yacht Club is a member of the Florida Council of Yacht Clubs, and. like all the members of this FINE organization, they readily accept visitors from other FCYC member clubs. Check with the club in advance to see if reciprocal arrangements are available from a yacht club to which you happen to belong. If you are not o a yacht club member, guest dockage is probably not in the offing for you here.
Eau Gallie Yacht Club?
We stayed there last Sunday, because of a line of strong t’storms that blew thru. The dockmaster’s name is John Gourmley. He requires 24 hr advance notice for advance reservations, ESPECIALLY for weekends. The reciprocity docks are generally tee heads, so side ties. It’s little exposed to west winds, but generally not too bad. The reciprocity fee is quite high; $2.00/ft of actual LOA (anchor to swim platform or dinghy) and $12 for 50A (or 2 x 30A) electric. The facility is very nice. There’s a nice pool that guests may use. Showers are excellent! There’s a formal dining room which requires jackets and ties, but also a lounge and bar that is completely casual. It’s a two city avenue walk to Publix (abt 3/4 mile, one way).
John is a curmudgeon, but you can “yes, sir” him to death successfully.
