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 NewsIn Memory of Bill Anderson It is with great sadness that we share the news that Bill Anderson died suddenly on the morning of September 16. His death leaves a great void, not just for his family, but for Deer Isle Yacht Club and the Deer Isle community. Bill never lost his sense of fun, or purpose, in all his years on Deer Isle. He looked around him and found what needed to be done, serving the Deer Isle Congregational Church, the Deer Isle Yacht Club, Island Workforce Housing, the Stonington Opera House, and Memorial Ambulance Corps, often taking a leading role. His approach was a smile, a twinkle, a hand extended, and a chuckle that said you were in good company. Our thoughts are with Lanny and the entire Anderson family.
