As a not-for-profit organisation, MYC is largely run by passionate volunteers and members who work together to provide a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment. The club plays an important role in the local community by encouraging participation in water sports, teaching essential skills, and fostering teamwork, confidence, and respect for the marine environment.

Funds raised help maintain facilities, support youth sailing programs, run community events, and ensure the club remains a thriving hub for sailors and the broader community for generations to come.
