SFYC Turns 150

Our San Francisco Yacht Club turned 150 this year. There was a big bash at the club but before that took place there were some creative projects related to this anniversary. A little know fact is that The Independence offers a full catalogue of classes & activities while ship-board. Led by instructor Kappy Reed, you too can enroll in our ‘Burgee Design Workshop’ and make a new burgee for your yacht club!

Wow, Kappy is amazing…considering this is made from items found ship-board including Kappy’s JetBlue sleep mask!

The 150 year anniversary celebration at the club was fabulous, especially the seafood buffet

We like seafood buffets…can you tell?!?
