Sailing's public record, made legible. All numbers come directly from this organization's own sworn 990 filing. Patterns are computed from years of filings — not assessments or judgments.

Read trends in context: compare like with like, note the filing year, and treat major disruptions (like 2020–2021) as discontinuities rather than a continuous baseline.

Missing or N/A does not always mean absent. It can mean the item was not disclosed on that form, not collected on that filing type, or not available for that year.

Officers & Key Staff (Part VII)

How to read this section

This is not a full staff directory. It is the subset of people the organization had to disclose in Form 990, Part VII (the officer, director, trustee, key employee, and highest-compensated employee section of the filing). Why this matters: a missing name does not mean a person was not employed or involved.

Total Volunteer Board Hours/Week (Selected Year): 135

Hours per week are self-reported by each officer on Form 990, Part VII. They are not verified.

Officers and directors as reported on Form 990, Part VII. These are typically unpaid, elected positions. If an officer receives compensation, it will appear in the Paid Staff tab.

Operationally, this section is most useful for understanding disclosed leadership structure, compensation visibility, and board labor — not for reconstructing the full staffing model of a club.

Programs (Part III — most recent year)

Form 990, Part III — Statement of Program Service Accomplishments. These are the activities that directly further the organization's exempt purpose. Expenses, grants, and revenue are as reported in the organization's own sworn filing.

The Club has dining facilities for its members. The facility is available for parties for members and guests. Several dinners will be held in conjuction with regattas. The Club makes its facilities available (on a non-fee basis) for meetings to many non-profit groups, such as the BBYRA, NJ State Boating Commission, Island Heights Sailing Foundation and other yacht clubs in the area.

Toms River Yacht Club holds a Club liquor license. The Club sells beverages to its members and guests. Sales are made at social events and after sailing regattas.

Other Program Services

Toms River Yacht Club has a pool and snack bar operation during the summer season for its members and guests of members.

Governance & Transparency Signals

The IRS Form 990 is a sworn disclosure document — not just a tax return. Beyond financials, it captures governance policies, compensation practices, and relationships between insiders and the organization. Every category below comes directly from that filing. When a field is blank, it is often because this form type doesn’t require it, or the org doesn’t meet the threshold that triggers disclosure. That context is itself worth knowing.

Conflict of Interest Policy

Form 990, Part VI — Line 12a

Governance data not available for this organization’s most recent filing year. This can occur for newly filed returns not yet in the corpus, or for organizations whose XML filing did not include Part VI.

Whistleblower Protection Policy

Form 990, Part VI — Line 13

Governance data not available for this organization’s most recent filing year.

Officer & Key Employee Compensation (Part VII)

Form 990, Part VII — Named individuals with reportable compensation

Part VII requires individual disclosure of all officers, directors, trustees, key employees, and the five highest-compensated employees earning above the reporting threshold. The individuals listed here are from the most recent available filing.

NameTitleComp from Org
Steven FarleyManager$78,683
Mary CoghlanManager$57,782
Calvin DraperSteward$51,510
Mary CoghlanManager$48,575
Calvin DraperSteward$44,773
Don DirschaverSteward$37,220
William WarnerTreasurer$7,500
William WarnerTreasurer$7,500

Compensation shown is reportable compensation from this organization only, as disclosed in Part VII. The $150,000 threshold is significant context: most volunteer-run sailing clubs report $0 for all officers. When professional staff — a General Manager, Executive Director, or Harbor Master — earns above that level, it signals an org operating more like a business than a volunteer collective. That’s not inherently good or bad: a $12M club with 45 full-time employees may well need a $200K GM. But a $400K club paying its Commodore $180K warrants scrutiny.

Independent Compensation Consultant

Schedule J, Part I — Organizations filing when comp exceeds $150K

Schedule J not required for this organization.

Schedule J is only filed when at least one individual in Part VII received more than $150,000 in total compensation. This organization doesn’t meet that threshold, so this schedule is not required. Among the 35.7% of organizations in this corpus that do file Schedule J, 35.7% used an independent compensation consultant. When Schedule J IS required, this question asks whether the board hired an outside firm — unconnected to the organization — to benchmark executive pay against market rates. It reduces the risk that a board approves whatever the ED requests rather than what comparable organizations actually pay.

Equity-Based Compensation

Schedule J, Part II — Per-person compensation detail

Schedule J not required for this organization.

Related-Party Transactions (Schedule L)

Schedule L — Transactions with Interested Persons (officers, directors, their families, controlled entities)

Schedule L requires disclosure of loans, grants, and business transactions between the organization and its own insiders — board members, officers, key employees, and their family members or entities they control. Nonprofits are not prohibited from transacting with insiders, but they must disclose it, follow fair-market-value standards, and document that the transaction benefited the organization, not just the insider. These disclosures exist because self-dealing is the most direct way nonprofit assets can flow to those in control.

No related-party transactions found in our data for this organization. Schedule L is only required when transactions occur — absence means none were reported, not necessarily that none occurred.

Schedule O — Supplemental Information (most recent year)

Organizations use Schedule O to provide additional explanation for answers given on the main 990 form. These are direct excerpts from the filed document.

Part VI, Section B, line 11b

Form 990 is prepared by the Treasurer, a retired CPA, and distributed to all 11 officers and Board of Governors prior to filing. The Treasurer reviews the form 990 with the Officers and Board and explains any differences between the financial statements and the tax return.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b

Form 990 is prepared by a retired CPA/Treasurer of the Organization and distributed to the Board for review.

IRS Source Filings

Source filings are IRS e-file records in XML (Extensible Markup Language) format — a structured data standard used by the IRS for electronic filing. If you open one of these links, it will look like code. That's not an error — that's what XML looks like. Harbor Commons processes this raw XML and presents the structured, readable view you see above.

Why this matters: the XML is the receipt. Harbor Commons is the reading layer on top of that receipt. If you ever need to verify a number, wording choice, or disclosure, the source filing is where to check.

Capacity Signals

Auto-detected patterns from this organization's own IRS filing history. Signals are relative to this org's trend only — not peer comparisons, not judgments.

Private clubs are naturally labor-heavy. Always interpret signals against this organization's own context before drawing conclusions.

Moderate

Expenses grew faster than labor

Total expenses rose 14% (TY2023→TY2024) while labor costs grew less than 2%. The gap is being filled by non-labor spending — contractors, facilities, insurance, or other professional services.

Why it matters: When expense growth consistently outpaces labor growth, the organization may be substituting staff with outside contractors — or absorbing rising fixed costs without expanding its team.

Operator question: Which non-labor line items drove the increase: outside contractors (Part IX line 11), occupancy, or insurance?

Phase 2 signals (contractor substitution, benefits share changes) require Part IX line-level data and are not yet available. All computations use IRS-filed data only; no external benchmarks or CPI adjustments beyond a 3% per year inflation proxy.

📡 Filing Signals (7 total)

Trends and shifts computed from this organization's own public filings across all available years. Signals highlight where numbers changed — not whether those changes are good or bad. Only people with inside knowledge of this organization can interpret what these signals mean.

Signals describe filing history, not the club's live operating state. The newest filing may still lag current reality by many months.
