I had the opportunity to visit this place with some friends that were members. You can dock your boat and walk right up and ask for a table. They have changed their entry procedures a bit to take your temperature but it's quick and easy. We got to sit outside and there was a little bit of a chill to the air. It's a good way to take in the view. The food was decent. The bang bang broccoli are interesting. Slightly spicy. I had the blackened grouper sandwich. It was good and I'd probably have it again. They also have a variety of wines that pair well with your food.

As a whole, the SPYC is a very good club. I know more about the Pass-a-Grille location, as my parents have been members there since the days when it was the Pass-a-Grille Yacht Club. Now that the two have combined, it's the best of both worlds. You have the casual intimate setting of the Pass-a-Grille location (which is walking distance for many of its members) and the fancier downtown location. Since this entry is for the Pass-a-Grille location I'll just say I've always enjoyed my visits here. The staff and service are top notch, and the restaurant and bar are a very pleasant location for lunch, dinner or just drinks. It is members only, so you'll have to buddy up with a member if you are looking to visit. North Latitude 27 degrees 46 minutes 18 seconds West Longitude 82 degrees 37 minutes 55 seconds

St. Pete Yacht Club to be torn down, rebuilt in 5 years. Here’s why.

• Bernadette Berdychowski Times staff

Hurricane Ian was a wake-up call, said St. Petersburg Yacht Club rear commodore Joe DiVito.

For several years, St. Petersburg Yacht Club leaders discussed options to renovate the century-old downtown facility on Beach Drive. But after the devastation of yacht clubs farther south in the Fort Myers area from the Category 4 storm originally forecast to hit Tampa Bay , DiVito said they had to act.

“Hurricane Ian was a message that said, you need to plan for the future if you’re going to spend this much money,” DiVito explained.

Their plan? Tear down the yacht club and start anew.

But demolition won’t happen soon. The St. Petersburg Yacht Club is thinking five years ahead, said DiVito, who’s third in command and the club’s appointed project spokesperson. The downtown organization, which has about 2,500 members, needs to raise funds for a project that could cost up to $40 million, find a temporary replacement home and finalize architectural designs to have the rebuilding completed by 2028.

Membership fees would go up from $50 to $125 a month to help finance construction costs, DeVito said.

He added the new building would incorporate the same Mediterranean architectural style as the current club.

The waterfront yacht club at 11 Central Ave. was originally constructed in 1917 and has had several renovations throughout its history. In 1921, it was hit by the last major hurricane to make landfall in the Tampa Bay region, which caused extensive flood damage to the building, according to club archives. Membership still increased after that storm, and the building extended its clubhouse in 1922.

Many parts of the building are now on their last legs, DiVito said. And with a bustling downtown, members wanted more amenities.

Remodeling would be too expensive because the waterfront building isn’t up to newer Federal Emergency Management Agency standards to be insured in case a storm hits. Starting fresh would allow the building to comply with those standards and add amenities and more parking space for a growing membership.

“Looking at the damage of the hurricane and how we’ve been lucky for almost 100 years, it doesn’t make any sense to put $15 million into a building that’s at major flood risk of being hit,” DeVito said. “And you lose all that money and have to start over again because flood insurance doesn’t pay dollar for dollar.”

St. Pete Yacht Club’s redevelopment plans inch forward

The St. Petersburg Yacht Club’s leadership now has a tentative goal to demolish the waterfront landmark – first opened in 1917 – and build anew in fiscal year 2028-29.

Members received the latest project update Monday. The email, obtained by the Catalyst , followed several Building Replacement Oversight Committee (BROC) meetings from July 2023 through February.

The update describes a “bottoms-up approach” to determine site utilization and maximize construction resources primarily provided by club dues. The Yacht Club has completed a property survey at 11 Central Avenue, soil tests and gathered information regarding city ordinances and easements.

The Feb. 27 BROC meeting minutes state that global engineering firm Skanska will lead the master planning phase and prepare conceptual designs to share with city officials and members. Pre-cast concrete massing models, which illustrate what could fit at the site, provided two building options that include 48,500 square feet of airconditioned space and a pool.

“Now that we know the most we can put there, we have to start thinking about what we want to put inside,” said rear commodore and project spokesperson Joe DiVito in a subsequent interview. “That’s going to take a series of meetings with a whole group of people and committees.”

The St. Petersburg Yacht Club site (red) at 11 Central Avenue. Screengrab, Pinellas County property records.

He expects members to discern how much space they want to allocate for a new restaurant, ballroom and meeting areas in six to 10 months. Stakeholders must also decide if they should build a new parking garage.

The Yacht Club built the current structure in the 1980s to withstand a Category 1 hurricane. DiVito said withstanding a Category 4 is the new building standard, and officials are receiving cost estimates to bring it up to code.

“By the time we finish construction, we’re going to have a 45-year-old parking garage,” he added. “Choice two is tearing the whole thing down, building the parking garage underneath the club and building the club above it. That has not been decided.”

Mother nature is playing a prominent role in the project. The “ Great Hurricane of October 1921 ” forced a complete rebuild four years after the Yacht Club opened.

Hurricane Ian highlighted the need for a more environmentally resilient facility when it hit Southwest Florida in late September 2022 and decimated several similar yacht clubs.

An unnamed hurricane caused significant flooding to the facility in October 1921. Screengrab.

In addition, stakeholders expressed the need for a new elevator, roof and pool deck, an updated kitchen and electrical repairs. In June 2023 , former club president Brian K. Smith told club members that an expensive remodel would still not comply with current Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) regulations.

The building’s floor elevation is six feet below building standards, and FEMA rules mandate a complete replacement if storm damage exceeds 50% of the facility’s appraised value. DiVito said those factors could influence the construction timeline.

“It could change based on costs, based upon storms – hurricanes that we get – any number of factors,” he explained. “We don’t know what the costs are going to be in four and a half to five years – so, it might take a little longer,” DiVito added. “And we could have somebody say, ‘I’d like to give you x amount of dollars to help with construction,’ and we could start earlier.”

According to meeting minutes, Yacht Club officials will meet with the city’s historical preservation staff to obtain demolition approval. The document notes that organizations, such as Preserve the ‘Burg, may want to “voice their opinion.”

While there is a 50-foot height restriction above base flood level, the Yacht Club could build up to 75 feet with city approval following a public hearing. The emailed update states that there is time “to be thoughtful and methodical prior to officially engaging the team that will deliver a timeless, elegant and functional clubhouse that embodies the spirit of our prestigious club while meeting the needs and aspirations of our members.”

The Yacht Club has already started building a new event pier and 475-foot floating dock. DiVito said the existing structure is over 50 years old and was becoming a “real problem.”

The new pier will better accommodate regattas and several other events hosted at the facility. “We tackled that first, and I think it’s going to be a tremendous asset to the club and the community,” DiVito said.

This has a very good chance of bankrupting this club. Ask treasure island and Sarasota. Let’s hope they learned from the current docks debacle.

March 13, 2024at1:10 pm

As an 8yr member of the club, I cannot wait to see this building demolished and built a new. St Pete and Preserve the Burg should still maintain that historic look, while updating the entire property from the inside out.

March 13, 2024at12:09 pm

There is need and then there is reality, no one knows how they are going to pay for this, the target figure is around $54M, who knows in 5+ years. I do not support “if its old, pull it down” ideology …FEMA or not, this concept would endanger a large percentage of Downtown St Pete (and most coastal areas). The new marina they are building is now way behind schedule and costs gone from $5M+ to 8M+. Not sure where 2400 members (apron 3400 individuals)are going to go for 2 years. I thing SPYC Board has an agenda, which is not shared by all members.

I live in Mexico, but my grandfather was a PAGYC Commodore. I thought this was insane until I saw Joe DiVito was involved. I trust Joe and his good judgment. The world is changing and it gets hard to keep up. Thanks care caring Joe!

It was in 1990 that the SPYC proposed to close the easternmost section of 1st Ave. North that passed through south Straub Park. We had a weak Mayor/City Manager form of government then and an agreement was reached to close the street and allow the footprint of the club house to expand. The St.Petersburg now Tampabay Times has archived articles about the process. The renovation that was completed 1992 is how the site looks today.

Award-winning St. Pete Beach is home to several public beach parks .   Upham Beach is a popular choice, and is located at 6850 Beach Plaza, St. Pete Beach, FL 33706.

Kicked back, clean white sand beach with convenient facilities.

Situated on the north end of St Pete Beach, Upham Beach is a favorite with locals and visitors alike, offering calm waters and white sand, comfortable amenities, and epic sunsets. Here, expect a laid-back atmosphere, with kids constructing sand castles to the melody of the surf and shorebirds, beachgoers lounging by the shore, and families splashing in the Gulf.

Parasails soaring off shore and frequent dolphin sightings add to the island atmosphere.

Traverse a wooden boardwalk spanning dunes lush with seagrapes and sea grass to discover Upham Beach, one of the only stretches of beach on St. Pete Beach not situated behind a hotel. Meticulously groomed, this beach is covered with the famous Gulf Coast white sand and scattered with shells. The waters are warm, shallow, and a stunning emerald hue. Because of the nearby jetty, there are a couple of smaller lagoons where kids can play out of the waves-- but there’s rarely any surf. Sections of the beach have rows of large rocks to control beach erosion.

While the water is usually calm, winds, tides and offshore systems can cause conditions to be rough.

On or near the beach

Let the salt air work its magic while you perfect your tan; splash in the Gulf’s tranquil waters; or stroll along the shore to the northernmost part of the beach to discover the ‘Secret Garden,’ a lush, hidden paradise.

Fuel the fun at the Paradise Grill , serving up frozen concoctions with names like ‘Miami Vice,’ and fare that includes Gulf Grouper and Cuban sandwiches. Or bring a picnic and enjoy it at one of the park’s tables.

Upham Beach has ADA parking, which is free. The Paradise Grill offers one beach wheelchair for use, first come, first served.

Amenities at Upham Beach include the Paradise Grill , serving up food and drink; picnic tables; restrooms and showers. You can rent a cabana and umbrella and chairs on the beach.
