Welcome to Oak Orchard Yacht Club --
Your Home for Fun and Friendship!
OOYC members are excited about the 2024 boating season. The club was founded in 1938 and for the past 84 years the membership has made OOYC their summer destination for fun on water and land. Enthusiasm at the club is at an all-time high for 2024!
On-the-Water Fun!
OOYC is a fun, family-oriented sailing and cruising club and is home to boaters of all experience levels. If you are interested in learning how to sail, we have a highly regarded youth sailing program that has been in operation since 1992. For adults, we offer two-week classes; if you aren't ready to make the two-week commitment, we offer First Sail -- an opportunity to try out sailing with a two-hour, on-the-water introductory session. Non-members are welcome!
The club comes together each Thursday night in the summer for a sailing race. After-race dinner and drinks are a fun tradition for all members.
The club organizes annual club cruises. Its a great opportunity for those who love to explore the lake and its many harbors.
Oak Orchard Harbor’s Best Location!
Oak Orchard is well known for being a unique, serene harbor on Lake Ontario’s south shore. OOYC is proud to have the best location on the creek. Members can keep their boats at club docks, which include water, power, and wi-fi. There are 46 slips accommodating boats up to 40 feet. Each dock is a deep water slip, allowing even the deepest of sailboat keels.
The Clubhouse - A Gathering Place
On weekends the clubhouse bar and restaurant are open to members and guests -- enjoy a wide variety of beer, mixed drinks, and wine. Dinner is served starting at 5:00 and there is an excellent variety of meal choices to select from.
Opportunities for Fun and Friendship
OOYC brings in live entertainment from local bands and comedians as well as special parties several weekends through the boating and off-season. These are great opportunities to meet new people and make long lasting friendships.
