Our Clubhouse boasts a large event and meeting space, an enclosed patio area, a functioning bar (Neptune’s Bar), and an industrial-sized kitchen available for use to all members. The outside patio has seating and BBQs for use as well. More BBQs are located on the North Dock Deck and on the Dock Master’s Deck.

Our bathrooms were updated in 2016. They include showers, washrooms as well as a separate handicap washroom for those with physical disabilities.

The flowers which adorn our grounds are all lovingly tendered by our member volunteers and are one of the elements that make our Club seem like a home.

New members Welcome! Power & Sail
We know that when you choose a yacht club, you choose a second home, a place to spend your summers, have fun with kids and grandkids…and delight in cruising life…for many years.

It’s also a significant family expense that we also understand needs to be balanced. At Trident, our fees our competitive to local yacht clubs in the local area, as well as the Toronto area.

We believe that we have a wonderful mix of services, culture and amenities that make Trident second to none, at a value that both young families, retirees and working couples alike can afford.
