Sussex Motor Yacht Club

The Sussex Yacht Club was established in 1892 by a group of yachting enthusiasts to further the sport of yachting and cruising and is now one of the oldest sailing clubs in the UK. The Club was originally named “The Mosquito Yacht Club” after the one-design yachts favoured by the gentlemen owners (the class itself was named after the blood sucking insects that once swarmed the Southwick canal).
