Many Seattle Yacht Club members cruise the waters of the pacific northwest in powerboats.

Syc has a number of interesting and exciting events for members with powerboats. These include formal events with fun interactive themes, local and long-range cruises from puget sound to the canadian gulf islands, and monthly dinners with exciting and informative speakers. Our monthly club dinners include topics about boating in the northwest and adventures from around the world. These dinner are also a fun way to meet with fellow club members and share boating experiences.
The 2 programs described on its FY2025 Form 990, listed largest first by expense.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $30M to $34M (+12%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2021 3%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.
