The New Plymouth Yacht Club is celebrating 75 years over Labour weekend. The club was established in 1939 and is the biggest yacht club on the West Coast of North Island.
The yacht club is still very strong with great numbers of junior sailors racing each Saturday morning also afternoon sailing for the seniors is still popular with the Hartley 16 and Paper Tiger Classes looking to have good numbers again this season.
Club Race 1962
