As Hurricane Katrina Devastates the South East

Founded in 1849, the Southern Yacht Club is the second oldest yacht club in the United States. The original structure of the current clubhouse was built in the late 1940's and underwent two major renovations, in the 60's and 80's. A third major renovation to the facility had been approved by the membership just this year.
