Merricks Yacht Club
Merricks Yacht Club was founded in 1964 as a small yard on the foreshore for the many enthusiastic sailors and fishermen in the holiday township of Merricks Beach. Since then it has grown into a popular local club which provides a great meeting place for local residents and holiday makers alike.
The sailing is friendly and not too competitive and the club has produced a number of accomplished sailors who have gone onto the world stage over the years. We have a keen gang of junior sailors who always look forward to an active junior sailing program over the summer period, for both newcomers and more experienced sailors.
Classes sailed at Merricks include: A Class, Mosquito, Melges 14, RS Aero, Laser Std/Radial/4.7, 420, Sabre, Impulse, Sparrow, Optimist and Castle 650, Explorer 16.
Come down to sail or enjoy the atmosphere around the club, not to mention the after-race social events and now the very popular Thursday evening gathering, each week, for the 5:30 PM happy hour.
