Welcome to Massapoag Yacht Club

Massapoag Yacht Club was founded on the shores of Lake Massapoag in 1946. MYC is an all-volunteer organization that has become a landmark for yacht racing in Massachusetts, as well as the Northeastern region of the US. Whether you are brand new to sailing or have extensive experience, MYC offers organized competition for all ages. We have hosted national sailing competitions as well as local and regional regattas. We hold races from May to October for all sailboat classes including juniors. For details see our Events Calendar.

MYC 73rd Annual Regatta is in the Books!

Tuesday, September 13, 2022

We had 25 Sunfish, 4 Day Sailers, 10 RS Aeros and 12 Lasers registred for the MYC 73rd Annual Regatta. The weather was beautiful, sunny and 80 degrees, but the wind, well, it just stayed home most of the weekend. Roger Sharp and the Race Committee did what they could to run some races for the eager competitors who appreciated whatever they could get. The Food was great, the camaraderie was wonderful. There were so many MYC volunteers and it warms the heart to see how hard we work to put on a great event. Thanks so much to everyone who participated and worked to make it a fun weekend!
