“Reciprocal visit with VGCC members” Review of Venice Yacht Club

Drinks at the tiki bar, then dinner upstairs. Lovely intimate setting and great view of the water. Service was non-intrusive, but attentive. All six of us gave an excellent raring to our food. Three crab cake meals, one halibut, one veal porcini and one ribeye and all were delicious!

Great location, just inside the Venice Inlet off the Golf of Mexico… Friendly folks especially harbormaster Ted George and the bartender John at the pool bar.

Had dinner and drinks with friends there. Very nice atmosphere and a great server. Drinks and food were great

I was very much looking forward to dining here with friends and I was somewhat disappointing. I ordered the fried shrimp and they arrived looking beautiful, just did not follow thru with taste. I picked up the first one and it dripped grease. The bottoms of all the shrimp were totally soggy. Nice size just not drained. Soups and salads were extra so all in all a pricey meal. I did not complain since others in the group seemed fine. Maybe it was just the shrimp???

Went last Friday with three other couples from Plantation Golf C.C. On a reciprocal basis. Outstanding indeed. Seven of us ordered the crab cakes and all have agreed that we never had better. As a result we plan to return before the end of September. Taylor our wait person was a delight. We dine in the TikiBar. Large group in the main dining area. If you can get invited, do it.🍴❤️❤️❤️❤️. And thanks to Sue too!

Yacht Club of America – Reciprocal Privileges

The Process of Reciprocity:

Yacht Club Reciprocity is defined as “A network of Yacht Clubs in agreement for the mutual exchange of privileges within that specific group of clubs.” The Yachting Club of America has reciprocal privilege agreements with nearly 800 Yacht Clubs throughout the United States.

Although the extent of privileges may vary slightly, generally, an YCA yachtsman can expect to be allowed to use all of the welcoming clubs’ available facilities and services, including short term berthing, meal and bar service, heads and showers, etc.

Typically, a yachtsman can stop at a Yacht Club along his trip, and if the club visited is a YCA member, they are granted access.

All member clubs generally grant access to the bar and restaurant area as well as short term berthing, heads and showers, but depending on the club size and stature, various reciprocal rights are granted depending on the club's policy.

It is always prudent to call ahead to let them know you’re coming as well as to determine what services are available.
