Wait List and Standby List

• Thunderbird Yacht Club’s Active membership is capped at 130 Members. We are currently at the membership cap and any new member applications are put on a Wait List, in the order of receipt. New member spots become available when existing Members resign or move to Social status.

• The Wait List is capped at 13. When the Wait List is full, a Standby List is in effect.

• You may reserve your spot on the Standby List, with a $100 non-refundable deposit, to be received with the application.  This ensures your name is added to the Wait List when space becomes available.

• Once your name moves to the Wait List, a non-refundable deposit of 50% of the Entrance fee is required to maintain your spot on the Wait List.

• There is no guarantee as to the length of time on either the  Wait List or Standby List.

• The membership cap is subject to review by the Board of Directors.
