Indian Lake Yacht Club

Indian Lake Yacht Club Since 1942, Indian Lake Yacht Club has promoted and advanced sailing on Indian Lake in northwest Ohio. See us on www.indianlakeyachtclub.com to find out more.

The Indian Lake Yacht Club has been a fixture on Indian Lake for almost 80 years. In the early 40’s a small group of sailors formed a nucleus, which was chartered as The Indian Lake Yacht Club in 1945. Over the years the ILYC leased a small island from the State of Ohio, which was eventually purchased from the State. Additional enlargement of the island was made possible by allowing the deposit of

dredged material. As the island grew so did the membership. Currently the club has a total membership approaching 90 members. Several classes of one-design boats are involved in sailing competition weekly throughout the summer season. In addition family gatherings with various themes are encouraged on specific holidays and weekends. Visitors are always welcome.

Just in time for summer! The Interlake and MC Scow fleets at ILYC currently have boats that are looking for new owners. Here's your chance to get into sailing! And what a bargain...both boats come with a 1-year membership to the club as well as a dock and, should you need it, introductory training on set-up and sailing!

Instruction for adults takes place on three consecutive Saturdays: June 6th, 13th & 20th, 2026 from 9:00 a.m. – Noon.
