Blackbeard Sailing Club, Ltd. is a private sailing club on the east coast of the United States. 

This site is intended to give virtual visitors to Blackbeard Sailing Club an idea of the Club's facilities and the Club's wide ranging activities both on and off the water. It is also designed to give BSC members a further channel of communication and contact with the Club, and to provide links to organizations and sites of importance and interest to visitors and members. Whichever category you fit into, please feel free to look around both sections of the site. Within the members' section there is a password protected area but most of the information about the Club is available for all to read.

Our Mission

"The basic premise of BSC, Ltd. is, and always has been, to promote the sport of sailing. The involvement of the total family ensures that this will never change. We've all rolled up our sleeves and the Club has come a long way in a short time. Yes, there is still much to be done. But that's okay because there is little doubt that those who have done the most have gotten the most from the club. The friendships made working and playing side by side during the past years will be lasting ones. Proof lies on Upper Broad Creek..."

Slip Equalization Plan Goes into Effect 4/1/2008
 
The Board of Directors at it's February 1, 2008 meeting voted to implement the Equalization Plan effective with the 2nd Quarter Billing (4/1/2008). This will place all slips on equal footing no matter what dock you are on. C Dock has paid higher fees than A or B Dock since it was constructed. The equalization plan takes into account depth, width and length of the slip. There is a special insert to the newsletter that gives a brief history, shows all of the new fees and outlines the overall impact on the Club. The information is also available in the members only section of the Club website. There are also copies available in the clubhouse. This is the first step in beginning the process of adjusting slip fees to reflect the actual cost of operation, maintenance and  replacement. The Board will be addressing this topic in greater detail with the membership over the next few months. Contact a Board Member if you have questions.
 
Board Votes to Implement Interim Electrical Service Charge
 
During the February 1, 2008 meeting the Board elected to implement the Electric Service alternate Plan retroactive to January 1, 2008. The plan is a special attachment to the newsletter and can be found in the members only section of the website. There are also copies available in the clubhouse. Unfortunately individual meters are not yet in place so the alternate plan will be used on each dock until metering on that dock is available. This is necessary to meet our 2008 Budget. Contact a Board Member if you have questions.
