The Golden Gate Yacht Club (GGYC) was founded in 1939, when members built a clubhouse on a barge in the San Francisco Marina. After the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake severely damaged the club, members pulled together and rebuilt it into the showcase facility that now exists.
Today, GGYC is a popular cruise and regatta venue on the San Francisco waterfront, with a dynamic organization of members dedicated to boating fun -- both sail and power. The Club is located on the jetty directly east of the St. Francis Yacht Club and north of the Marina Green, at the end of Yacht Road in San Francisco.
Members include:
- Larry Ellison
- Tom Hurley
