Our History

Juneau Yacht Club Clubhouse

JYC "father" of predicted log races for powerboats.

In the late 1940's various options were explored for the Yacht Club to own their own clubhouse. In 1947 a small house was moved to Harris Harbor and became a small restaurant and meeting place for the Club. The membership voted to sell the building in 1973. In 1974 the meetings were moved to the rental hall at Switzer Village. Subsequently, construction of a new clubhouse on the present site at the northern end of Aurora Harbor was planned. Through the efforts of Leroy West, Ken Morgan and Don Statter a long-term land lease was negotiated, and near the end of 1975 a contract was signed for the construction of the first phase of the present facility. The second phase of construction was designed in 1978 and begun in 1979 1980. Much of the interior finish was performed by member volunteers under the careful supervision of Ralph Graham. The next goal was a complete renovation of the galley (kitchen) area to make it modern and "user friendly".
