Scott Dixon
CommodoreWelcome to the Long Beach Yacht Club
I am privileged to serve as the 95th Commodore of the Long Beach Yacht Club. Founded in 1929, the Long Beach Yacht Club’s premier waterfront location, marine assets, and excellent facilities combine with its rich yachting experience and its unsurpassed hospitality to make it one of the finest yacht clubs in the world for members and visiting yachtsmen.
The Club is hosting a full schedule of regattas in 2024, including the 59th Congressional Cup which will again be a tour stop on the World Match Racing Tour and will take place from April 23 through 28. Our Club’s racing calendar will also include our Wet Wednesday Series, Catalina Island Series, Long Beach Race Week and the Olympic Classes Regatta. Our experienced Regatta Management team, Judges and Umpires have a busy year ahead.
Our Opening Day will take place on March 16, and we are optimistic that the bay will be free of ice. Our social calendar is full of exciting events including our traditional parties, Commodore’s Ball, and a Barn Dance. The Cruisers and Anglers are planning their trips to exciting destinations both here in Southern California and in international destinations.
In addition to the Long Beach Sailing Foundation’s fleet of eleven equally matched Catalina 37s, members have access to a fleet of eight completely rebuilt and equally matched Solings for their sailing enjoyment. Our Soling fleet has become a popular platform for introducing members that are new to sailing to the sport. Our Junior Sailing programs incorporate Sabots, FJs, Lasers, and C420s in a curriculum that develops strong fundamentals and good seamanship in our junior sailors. Our Corinthian swimming programs provide a curriculum that spans from learn to swim programs to competitive swimming events.
From our clubhouse on the shore of Alamitos Bay with its beautiful swimming pool, an active lounge, and excellent dining and banquet facilities, to our excellent youth and adult sailing programs, the Long Beach Yacht Club provides members with the amenities they desire for their social and recreational enjoyment.
