It is a 100-member “private co-op” style club. The club originally was part of CFB Rockcliffe but changed to a private club in 1984. The club is centred on a concrete ramp originally used to launch RCAF sea planes. The ramp extends {{convert|50|ft}} into the water [1] as when the ramp was built, in the 1930s, the level of the Ottawa river was much lower. In 1964, a dam was put across the Ottawa River for the Carillon Generating Station which raised the water level by {{convert|9|ft}}.[2] As a result, the Rockcliffe Yacht Club has one of the best launching ramps on the Ottawa river.
