Deer Isle Yacht Club
The Deer Isle Yacht Club is a small local yacht club in Sylvester’s Cove, Sunset, Maine. The Club was founded in 1925 with the purpose of providing facilities and activities for its members in their use of Penobscot Bay and adjacent waters; encouraging amateur yachting, both recreational and competitive; promoting sound seamanship; and fostering knowledge of and respect for the dangers of the sea. Facilities are minimal as the club has no potable water, no fuel dock, no showers, and little parking. Sailing lessons for members are occasionally offered, but Membership is necessarily limited by the size of the Cove; more information can be found at the Membership section of this website. 
Club NewsThe DIYC is Turning 100! Thanks to Ned Gresham for his presentation at the Annual Meeting of plans for the Club's 100th Anniversary celebration. He and Malcolm are bringing the DIYC into its next century with a QR code and stylish teaser for our upcoming celebration in August 2025! Follow the link for details and be sure to respond to Ned and Malcolm with ideas and to help:
We really wish that we didn’t have to start thinking about the end of the season quite yet, but the floats are scheduled to be removed from the water on September 15th. Please make sure to remove all privately owned dinghies, and kayaks from the DIYC property for storage off site prior to this date. | Upcoming Club Events
