Yacthsmen Association
The Yachtsmen Association is a collection of Catawba Island Club members (boaters and non-boaters alike) who appreciate and celebrate the CIC lifestyle to its fullest. Starting the season off with meet and greet cocktail parties, organized cruises during the season and multiple events throughout the year, the Yachtsmen Association is a fantastic way to meet new people, discover new places and have a great time. All Catawba Island Club members are eligible to join the Yachtsmen Association and enjoy the many activities.
