OCSC Sailing began in 1979, with one boat, a shed, and a simple idea: share the joy of sailing and take care of our clients the way we’d want our friends and family to be treated.

A committee consisting of Mildred Wright, Ken Gilman, Byron Jessup, Ray Borgeson, […]
In January 1913, a handful of sailors met at Peterson’s Boat House at the foot of 12th Street in Oakland. They formed Oakland Yacht Club which was incorporated in December of that year.

Pulcifer was elected the first Commodore, and the first meetings of the […]

Mission Bay Yacht Club has a rich history — the early sailboats had to be flat bottomed to maneuver in the shallow water of the Bay. The Flapper, a 12 foot catboat, was the first class to race. A variety of boats, including some from San Diego Yacht Club, formed a handicap fleet and raced when the tide permitted. By 1931 the Skimmer was the hot boat in this area. Each Opening Day we relive some of our early history […]

The club membership, I am told, is for the sole purpose of one thing: the pursuit of furthering the hobby and past time of sailing and encouraging all of the family to participate, including the “little ones.” I have also been told that those folks seeking new membership who do not sail … are not invited to join. Sailing IS very important here. All events at the club are planned or in concert with different sailing events, races, regattas, meets […]

The Club began in 1963 when a few sailors from Winnipeg would gather weekends at Faloma to go sailing. It did not take long for them to begin racing their boats against each other, using the public government dock of the time as their start/finish point. In 1964, John Higham, the Club’s very first Commodore, obtained a charter to form the Falcon Yacht Club and approached the Dept. of Mines & Natural Resources for some land “to maintain and operate […]
