Canberra Yacht Club

The Canberra Yacht Club was formed in 1959 in anticipation of the creation of Lake Burley Griffin in the centre of Canberra, Australia, which happened in the 1960s. It is located on the shore in the suburb of Yarralumla.

Its members have competed in the Sydney to Hobart yacht race.^[1]
