Deer Isle Yacht Club
The Deer Isle Yacht Club is a small local yacht club in Sylvester’s Cove, Sunset, Maine. The Club was founded in 1925 to promote small boat sailing and to instruct juniors in this sport of sailing, rules of the road and seamanship. Facilities are minimal as the club has no potable water, no fuel dock, no showers, and little parking. Sailing lessons are offered late-June through early August to members and non-members of all ages and skill levels. Membership is necessarily limited by the size of the Cove; more information can be found at the Membership section of this website. 
Club NewsProperty Reconfiguration Project The big day is here and the weather looks like it will cooperate. We start at 8:00 each morning and should have two or three member tractors on site. The work should take a few days. Day 1 (Tuesday, September 8) is the heavy work: digging up the old road next to the garage, regrading the driveway to fix erosion, spreading gravel and topsoil, adding four new parking spaces, and clearing brush in the overflow lot and on the ledge across the street. Day 2 (Wednesday, September 9) is the planting and finishing work: more topsoil, seed mats on the sloped areas, grass seed, and new bushes and trees. Of course, things never go exactly as planned, but we can hope. We need volunteers both days. Please bring work gloves, rakes, shovels, and similar tools. This should be a fun project and we look forward to working with everyone. | Upcoming Club Events
