Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club
The Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club (Chinese: 香港遊艇會) is a Hong Kong sports club for sailing and rowing. Founded as Hong Kong Corinthian Yacht Club (H.K.Y.C.) in 1890, it became the Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club in 1894. It is one of the few local institutions to keep the "Royal" prefix after Hong Kong's handover to the People's Republic of China in 1997, despite support for its removal among some members prior to the handover. Early members were British only with military personnel on the board. Today, membership is open to all.
