Things To Do

Thirty years earlier, Shelter Cove and Old Town were known as Whaler’s Cove, a favorite rendezvous point for whaling vessels in the 1840s. In 1848, the United States Navy built a sawmill and dry dock there to supply and repair the Pacific Steamship fleet, which would be the beginning of the area’s long history of boat- and ship-building. When the Navy moved its  shipyard to Mare Island in 1852, the area fell into neglect and disrepair. Further north, New Town Sausalito began to thrive, especially after the North Pacific Coast Railroad began operations in 1874.

Though short-lived, the PYC made quite a splash in San Francisco Bay yachting circles during the 1880s and early ’90s. Sausalito News and San Francisco Call articles from the period covered races sponsored by the PYC and events such as the opening day celebrations in May every year. Some club members lived on “The Hill” in Sausalito, but many ferried over from their homes in San Francisco for lavish gatherings and “boat-hopping,” dinner dances and tug-boat parties across the bay and back. The PYC had many illustrious members and some fine boats, but dark clouds began to appear on the horizon for the club in the early 1890s.

Fewer than half of the PYC’s members were “subscription” members, who paid annual dues, while the rest were “lifetime” members, who didn’t contribute any funds at all. Their membership was also not the most diligent and enthusiastic of sailors — news articles often criticized the club for failing to enter boats in regattas or not following through with planned races of their own. A scathing San Francisco Call article in October 1898,stated, “The Pacific Yacht Club … has suffered from a superfluity of officers and a deficiency of yachts. … But the failure of the Pacifics … prove that yachting is not a rich man’s sport in San Francisco Bay. … Owners of handsome, expensive yachts manifest less club spirit than the owners of moderate-sized or small craft.”

Owing more than $20,000 in principal and interest, the PYC’s land and assets were sold out of foreclosure in 1899 to the Spreckel brothers, one of whom, ironically enough, was John D. Spreckels, a member and former president of the yacht club.
