Over 100 years of HISTORY! Did you know that US Sailing History in and around Hawaii, US Naval history in the Pacific, and the history of every yacht club in Hawaii came about from Pearl Harbor Yacht Club? YES!! Hawaiian Island history and sailing are very intertwined in the early years of Pearl Harbor Yacht Club (PHYC)!
Back in the day, everyone who was anyone was a member of PHYC!!
Hawaiian Ali’I, Military Generals, Admirals, landowners, alike were members. Sailing was a popular gathering place for many. As our Club Historian continues to sift through news articles, microfiche, to talk story with folks who belonged to and sailed at PHYC many moons ago, we uncover many important beginnings and meanings behind decades old sailing trophies and awards that existed and are still awarded to sailors around the island annually.
Many of these delicate trophies were restored this past year and are shiny. like new once again, and can be seen displayed in one of the many local yacht clubs on Oahu. Read about them all in the Throwback Thursday Section! Can you find the ones PHYC Members have been awarded? Chee Hoo!
PHYC is the FUN Place to Sail!
Come join us for a casual sail or our sunset Juice Box Race on the last Thursday of each month!
We look forward to an incredible year with you!!
