Strategic Plan
Over the last 6 months the Management Committe has undertaken research and conducted surveys to access the current situatioin the club is in and take steps to plan for the future.
In doing so a 10 year Strategic Plan has been put into place with targets and measures in place to ensure the plan is being delivered.
The highlights of the plan are:
To sustain WMYC as a friendly, member‑first yacht club while growing a younger and family‑inclusive membership base, improving financial resilience via clubhouse revenue, and strengthening precinct and boat security without diminishing member enjoyment.
· Members rate overall value positively and support modernising facilities - bathrooms/change rooms and bar/dining are top priorities.
· Growing membership (especially youth, young adults and families) is a core 10‑year priority.
· The majority support opening food and beverage to the public to diversify revenue—provided marina and member spaces remain secure and members retain priority use.
· Security confidence for vessels and grounds needs improvement; a “secure‑by‑design” approach is planned (physical separation, access control, and smart surveillance).
