About NYOC
We are committed to respecting all members equally in the same way as we organized the club
We have organically set up the NYOC from “Coffee House Gathering” at the member’s sailboat in 2017 and enlarged with new members beyond the horizon. We are enjoying club lives among current members and expecting new members to join us as well. We love ocean and nature as fundamental, also appreciate good foods, good drinks as wines, beers, so on and enjoy pleasant time with friends at our club owners’ room in the marina sometime and in shades under palm trees other time.
Nio Marina faces to the “Hiuchi-Nada” in West and the setting sun is very beautiful as you can imagine. Please stay in touch with us and join us to enjoy the best part of Nio Marina with us.

Vision
Trusting contemplation realizes earlier at Nio
We have grown over years with our contemplation, sailing out to the blue sea with our boats under a full moon for overnight cruising sometime, cruising to long distance islands other time.
Famous movie stars, Alain Delon in the (Plein Soleil), Yujiro Ishihara in the (Alone in the Pacific) , Yuzo Kayama as a captain of Koshin-maru encouraged us to realize our dreams come true . While Japan proceeded to become wealthier and more complex in society, we gradually forgot the strength of simplicity. We trust simple wishes can be a strongest driver for dreams to realize and we are committed to leading it.
Mission
We visualize and demonstrate our vision in Sail / Power boats environment
NYOC with our vision of “Trusting contemplation realizes earlier at Nio” will help support all our friends to visualize and experience it. Speaking “Vision and Mission” is easy but “realizing it” takes time as a long journey where obstacles may block you. We therefore it is important for us to “Experience it” rather remaining in “Seeing it”.
Strategy
NYOC promotes our Vision and Mission to be supported by as many of Sail/power boat owners as possible.
1. We promote hospitality of Nio Marina
Most of local marinas were built when National Athletic Meet took place in each prefecture. After the events, private companies inherited operation work of those marina facilities from local governments. Many of those private companies but not all of them cut and pasted facilities for profit but many of them were not successful neither for companies but also services for boat owners.
NYOC is a group of boat owners and we know what we wish to receive from marinas, therefore we can make proposals for value creation at Nio Marina for improvement in the hospitality through servicing by the marina.
2. Making our homeport active and value provider to community
NYOC strongly believes our boat lives remain enjoyable as Nio community stay active. Creating value of Nio marina as well as that of NYOC should be of our everyday motivation. Number of visitor boats, visitors to the marina for sports, customers to the restaurant are the typical indicator of our value. The Wine-shokudo on the 2nd floor of the club house is recent our proposal and it successfully increased visitors to the marina.
3. Growing value of Nio Marina
The Nio Marina is believed to be the safest marina around Hiuchi-Nada area even when typhoon approaching. Nio-Marina safety owes largely to the location, robustness of facility, readiness of equipment. There are more than 100 visitors a year in all sizes, some of them are frequent visitors as they value Nio-Marina accordingly. NYOC is committed to creating total value of Nio-Marina by offering 1) Hospitality by marina and 2) Staying active with community.
