In 1905, the members reorganized as the Houston Yacht & Power Boat Club. Members continued to hold meetings in downtown Houston and moor their boats at the club wharf on Buffalo Bayou near Allen's Landing. By 1926, plans were firmly underway to finally relocate the Yacht Club permanently to Galveston Bay. The new building was completed on July 4, 1927 and became the new home of our current Houston Yacht Club. In 2017, HYC celebrated the 90th anniversary of this Galveston Bay landmark, affectionately dubbed the Pink Palace. Setting Sail For The Future The Houston Yacht Club is always charting new waters! We continue to add new activities and expand our resort amenities. Of course, we'll continue to honor our heritage and to provide the same exclusive service and experience our members expect - including leading the yachting community with great regattas, races, youth sailing programs and waterfront activities. Think of us as a private resort that's just minutes from home. Boat ownership is not required for membership.
