The Ballaarat Yacht Club is located on the southern foreshore on Lake Wendouree in the centre of Ballarat in Victoria, Australia.

The club was established in 1877 and has had a continuous history albeit having been affected by droughts. The Ballaarat Yacht Club has a proud history in regional and State racing. The club is proud of its many champions and juniors who started and honed their skills in the variable winds of Lake Wendouree, who have gone on to glory in the world of yachting.

The club has a great tradition of being a family club with children a welcome part of sailing and the clubhouse. We strongly encourage juniors to come up through the ranks and become the future of our club as members and on the committee.
