Illiana Yacht Club (IYC, Inc.) was
founded in 1934 as a family oriented sailing and social club. We are a
Non-Profit Corporation Dedicated to the Education & Advancement of
Sailing & Yachting. The club roster includes people from all
walks of life: professional as well as non-professionals. Anyone
interested in sailing of any type may apply.
While we target yacht racing as a prime activity, we
have many other events that keep families coming back. Since it is a
self-service club, the dues are very low compared to other Chicago area
yacht clubs. In addition, Wolf
Lake has the advantage of
getting all the wind on Lake Michigan
without the dangers of the big lake. Our facilities include an all
weather clubhouse, showers, swimming beach, kids playground, large
launching ramp, hoist, 200 feet of docks, wet moorings for cruising
boats and plenty of grass covered grounds for picnics and overnight
camping and fishing.
Illiana
Yacht Club currently has Open Fleet racing: Participants include National One Designs, Windmills,
and Lasers along with various other
sailboats. Other classes are invited to participate in racing in an
"open" fleet (non-handicapped), and we do host non-IYC Fleet
regattas. Club racing is from Memorial Day to Labor Day on Sunday
afternoons. An awards banquet concludes the season in November. IYC,
Inc. is the ONLY Chicago-area Club to conduct one-design dinghy
racing on a regular basis. We also sponsor a Youth Sailing
Program each summer.
