The Wickford Yacht Club, established in 1935, offers a premier yachting experience in the historic harbors of Wickford, Rhode Island. With a rich maritime history, including the formation of the club by Woodpussy sailors after World War II and the incorporation of the Wickford Sailing Association in 1985, the club continues to fulfill its mission of fostering the sport of yachting and providing suitable facilities and activities for its members.
Located on Pleasant Street, the current clubhouse, purchased in 1968, serves as a hub for various club activities, including regattas, club cruises, and educational programs. Despite facing challenges such as the destruction caused by the Hurricane of 1938 and Superstorm Sandy in 2012, the Wickford Yacht Club remains a top destination for yachting enthusiasts, thanks to its protected east coast natural harbors and its commitment to preserving the maritime heritage of Wickford.
