Southold Yacht Club Inc

The Southold Yacht Club Inc is a U.S. nonprofit organization with the goal of making sailing accessible to the North Fork community. It is located on Long Island and operates as a small, family-oriented club.

History

Founded in the early 1930s by a group of young sailors, the Southold Yacht Club was formally organized in 1938. Initially, the club used the town wharf at Founders Landing for events and races. In 1948, a permanent clubhouse was opened at Paradise Point but was later relocated in 1969 to its current site adjacent to Goose Creek Bridge due to safety concerns[1].

Membership and Programs

The club offers various membership levels, including Family, Associate, Junior, and Senior, with corresponding annual dues. The Family Membership is required for children participating in the Junior Sailing Program, which is a comprehensive eight-week program during July and August[2]. The club is active from Memorial Day to Columbus Day and hosts several social and sailing events throughout the season[3].

Mission

Southold Yacht Club's mission is to provide affordable sailing opportunities to the community by maintaining low dues and tuition fees for sailing school programs[5]. The club is known for fostering competitive sailors who have participated in national and international competitions[1].

Activities and Events

  • Weekly Racing Series: Members can participate in racing events.
  • Social Events: Various social activities are held throughout the year, including dances and suppers.
  • Junior Sailing Program: A focused program for children aged 7 to 17, aimed at developing sailing skills.
  • Adult Sailing: Opportunities for adults to keep their boats at the club's boatyard and participate in sailing lessons[4].

The Southold Yacht Club also hosts the World’s Longest Sunfish Race annually, emphasizing its commitment to community engagement and sailing traditions[1].
