The Membership Interviews are accessible by invitation, for those in the process of applying for membership at Cardiff Bay Yacht Club.
During these events, we explain how the Club is run, the role of the committee within the Club, and what is expected of you as a member. We can also look at opportunities for assisting you if needed to improve your knowledge of boat handling etc; courses can be recommended whether in-house or organised by reputable local organisations.
