Sheridan Shore Yacht Club has an international reputation for sailboat racing. Our members enjoy a season-long race program for cruising and one-design fleets which offers recreational competition. The Club actively supports its Sailing School which attracted over 400 students in 2012 and is home to three high school sailing teams.

The members of Sheridan Shore Yacht Club have at least three things in common. We all enjoy boating, the water, and being at the harbor. Whether you are having dinner with your family or friends or just hanging out on the deck at the end of the day, becoming a member of SSYC will add significantly to your overall Lake Michigan experience. We hope you will join us.
