Geographe Bay Yacht Club AGM 2026

Thank you to everyone who attended the Geographe Bay Yacht Club Annual General Meeting this week.

It was wonderful to see so many members take the time to attend and learn more about how their club operates. As a member-based organisation, the strength of our club relies on the engagement, support and involvement of our members. The AGM is an important opportunity to reflect on the year that was, review the club's performance, hear about future plans, and ensure the club continues to be guided by members for members.

Like yacht clubs around Australia, Geographe Bay Yacht Club is powered by volunteers. Behind every race, junior training session, social event, maintenance project and strategic decision is a dedicated group of members who generously contribute their time and expertise to help our club thrive.

We would like to congratulate and thank the members who have been elected to serve on the Geographe Bay Yacht Club Committee for the coming year.
