Welcome to
Lake Canyon Yacht Club
The Lake Canyon Yacht Club was chartered in 1967 
with a primary focus on sailing, as well as active participation in the LCYC volunteer-based community. It is located on the north shore of Canyon Lake, Texas about 45 miles north of San Antonio and 50 miles south of Austin. The club facilities occupy 18 acres of land on a bluff overlooking the deep 8000 acre lake.
The club's amenities include a 144 slip waterfront with ample docking space for dry sailed boats and visitors participating in regattas, a two lane launching ramp, dry storage for over 150 boats, a clubhouse with a party deck, swimming pool, and a boat rigging tower for stepping and unstepping masts. The Lake Canyon Yacht Club supports an active racing program which includes J-22, Catalina 22, Flying Scot, Sunfish, Opti, PHRF, Portsmouth and Multi-hull fleets. Not to be missed is our annual Wurstfest Regatta, an LCYC signature event since 1968.
Our club is also pleased to be connected with the Canyon Lake Sailing Foundation, a non profit organization and registered with the State of Texas as a 501(C)3 corporation. The Foundation's charter is to support youth sailing and water safety. More details can be found on the Youth Sailing page.

Marina Relocation Project
The MRP is 90 percent complete and all docks are in place and functioning. Some electrical and water runs remain along with a few final Hydro Hoist adjustments. A decision was made by the MRP team and MDI management to use existing B Dock fingers (rather than demolish and haul off) in order to create a new Youth Dock base. This change in plans has proven to be an excellent choice because the end product is a much more structurally sound Youth Dock that is approximately 500 square feet larger at no additional cost. The old Youth Dock will remain in place.
The new marina configuration is very impressive and the membership will have a lot to be proud of for years to come. Barry Parkoff has been a key player for LCYC and deserves much praise. Several years ago he was responsible for a major upgrade to the breakwater, which was moved further out into the lake last year. Now he is the team lead on the reconfiguration of the marina which included replacing 37 damaged slips, constructing a new Youth Dock, enlarging the Super dock, and creating much more dock space. All of the slips are now located in the deepest water that the Corps of Engineers will allow. We salute Barry for his efforts.
