Albatross Yacht Club
Where New Sailors are Always Welcome 
 

Albatross Yacht Club (AYC) is a sailboat racing club.  We sail in Anchor Bay on northern Lake St. Clair. In association with the Anchor Bay Yacht-Racing Association (ABYRA), we manage our Tuesday Night Twilight Race Series, and also sponsor several Invitational races.

On Tuesday most evenings, between May and September, you will find several classes of yachts having a go around the buoys.  We feature handicap fleets for a wide range of boats, including Spinnaker, Asymmetric Spinnaker (Mackinac Race Cruising Class rules), and Jib & Main racers.  One-design classes can also be accommodated .  We are a member of the Detroit Regional Yacht-Racing Association.

The racing is both fun and competitive.  Afterwards, we meet for food and drink while listening to the stories about why or why knots of the the race, while the Race Committee and the Rear Commodore compile the race results.
