Sailing: The history of the Southold Yacht Club

In 1933 a group of young men living on Town Creek imagined a sailing club for recreational racing. In 1938 the Southold Yacht Club (SYC), a small family-oriented, volunteer-driven club was organized at Founder’s Landing with a mission of making sailing accessible to the North Fork community. In 1969 SYC built their historic clubhouse and boatyard on Southold Bay beachfront next to the Goose Creek Beach.
