Experience Sailing at Hout Bay Yacht Club's Open Day
June 13, 2025
|Sentinel News
The Hout Bay Yacht Club (HBYC) will host its annual Open Day this weekend, inviting residents and visitors to experience sailing and learn more about the club's activities.
The event is part of the club's effort to grow interest in sailing and attract new members. Visitors will have the chance to explore the club's facilities, meet members, and take part in scheduled sailing activities.
Every Tuesday evening and Saturday afternoon, yachts take to the water off Hout Bay beach as part of regular sailing races. While it may seem like a visual display to beachgoers, it is a competitive event focused on skill and strategy for the sailors involved.
Since 2016, the introduction of the Hunter 19 fleet has re-energised local participation in sailing, standing out against a global trend that has seen yacht racing decline.
The revival began in July 2016 when former Hout Bay Yacht Club commodore Paul Tomes identified factors behind declining yacht attendance globally.
