In 1931 a devastating fire to PPYC resulted in the amalgamation of PPYC and SYC in 1932. Another fire in 1955 totally destroyed the original SYC Clubhouse with the Club losing all of its records and memorabilia together with most of its documented history.
With rapid rebuilding, helped by volunteer labour a new club was built for the 1956 Olympic Sailing “Finn” Class and was honoured with a visit from his Royal Highness, Prince Philip, himself a keen sailor, who later became SYC’s Commodore in Chief on the 25th January 1980 and recently visited the Club in 2000. The old Clubhouse (current car park site) was built in 1963 and the funds were raised through a debenture scheme
SYC has been focused on providing its members and guests with the best facilities and services on any yacht club on Port Phillip Bay. In the early 1990’s SYC put in place the current 340 berth floating marina we enjoy today. In 2002 SYC redeveloped the waterfront facilities including the:
- Boat yard environment and pollution control system
- Marina Fuel System
- 40 tonne travel lift
- Boating Maintenance Precinct
- Concessions/Brokers Building
- Ken King Centre
- Capital cost of $3.5 million
In late 2007 SYC commenced construction of FMP2 – our new clubhouse and car park facility with a capital cost of 12.75 million. Construction concluded at the end of June 2009. Members and guests are currently enjoying the state of the art facility.
The Club burgee has been flown for 106 years which is the longest continual use of any burgee on Port Phillip Bay.
Following is the story of the SYC burgees
Port Phillip Yacht Club began at Sandringham in 1903, and adopted the burgee that we fly today – a red diagonal on a white background.
Sandringham Yacht Club had its beginnings in 1911, and in 1912, adopted an emerald green burgee with a golden yellow cross. The club flew this until it adopted a new burgee in 1925 – a navy blue background with a red cross overlaid with a white five point start.
In 1931, fire destroyed the Clubhouse of PRYC and the two clubs decided to amalgamate the following year, retaining the Sandringham name and the Port Phillip burgee. This burgee has a proud history, having been flown consistently since 1903, and is one of the oldest on Port Phillip Bay.
During our centenary celebrations we have discovered that the red white and blue burgee, flown from 1925 – 1932, was identical in colour and design to the burgee of the New York Yacht Club. Their burgee has been in use since 1844 and the design was published in the Lloyd’s Register in the late 1800’s. The design is rightfully theirs, but because of its historical significance to our club, especially in our centenary year, NYYC have graciously given permission for its use as part of our centenary logo.
Our current burgee with its bright red diagonal has become synonymous with good sailing and strong competition. It is known and respected in Port Phillip Bay, throughout Australia, and around the world, and should be shown on members’ vessels with pride, on every possible occasion.
Graeme Disney Club Historian
Sandringham Yacht Club
Members and guests of melbourne's sandringham yacht club can now enjoy one of the finest yacht club facilities in australia.
Sandringham Yacht Club opened its stunning new clubhouse to rapturous applause in July. The new clubhouse stands on the site of the old carpark and is closer to the marina, and to the yacht-racing action on Port Phillip Bay.
Built at a cost of $12.75 million, the new facility replaces the old clubhouse which has stood since 1956. Funding for the project was raised with a combination of a bank loan and from the members who were offered an extension on their marina berth leases, prepayment of locker and hardstand fees, and interest-bearing debentures.
The old clubhouse, built to host the Melbourne Olympic Games, offered 1400m² of usable area whereas the new clubhouse offers 2600m² and will have extra carparking on the site of the old clubhouse.
AUSTRALIA'S FINEST At the opening, the new facility was described by Commodore Philip Burn as "the best boating facility in Australia" and at the risk of sounding biased (as I am a member of Sandringham) I would have to agree.
The new Sandringham facility is not just a clubhouse for members, but a training facility, a function centre and a restaurant open to the public.
While the new building houses a members' bar and members' lounge, it also has an enormous function room, meeting rooms, an auditorium and a restaurant.
The club's function room will be available for bookings from the public and offers food and beverage facilities, state-of-the-art audio-visual technology, a moveable dance floor and stage setup, and stunning views to the south and west.
On its northern side, the club has a huge verandah overlooking the marina and safe harbour. This is open to members with a section adjoining the restaurant for the public.
The auditorium is downstairs and can seat up to 80 people. It is equipped with audio-visual equipment, wireless internet and is big enough to accommodate a fully-rigged sailing skiff.
In the members' lounge is a library stocked with interesting maritime books, comfortable lounge chairs, complementary tea and coffee, and two work stations with internet-enabled computers for members' use. Throughout the clubhouse are trophies, photos and club memorabilia.
FOCUS ON TRAINING According to Commodore Burn, the new facility will have a big focus on training, not only of school kids, but young people looking to embark in a career in the marine industry.
"Certainly, we have school student programs here at Sandringham," said Burn. "In fact, we run about 2000 kids from 25 different schools through here each year. We teach them about boat handling and sailing, but more importantly, we teach them about safety and responsibility on the water," he added.
"However, one of our other big focuses is training young people for a future in the marine industry," said Burn.
Sandringham Yacht Club received $437,500 from the Victorian Government on a dollar-for-dollar basis to build a fully-equipped auditorium which augments its already impressive training facilities.
"We are working with William Angliss TAFE and Holmsglen TAFE to train young people in the marine component of a Resort Management qualification," said Burn. "We also train people who just want to learn to sail as we have introductory and intermediate courses for both kids and adults."
Interestingly, Sandringham Yacht Club is only the second sporting club in the country to achieve Registered Training Organisation (RTO) status, the first being the Western Bulldogs AFL Club.
Burn said that like other yacht clubs, Sandringham must focus on the younger members for the Club to survive: "We have around 2000 members at the moment," he said. "But, although our membership is growing, it's a fact that 55 per cent of our membership is over 50 years of age, so we need to have the younger folk come up through the ranks to lower the average age."
Sandringham's CEO, Richard Hewett, says the club employs 29 full-time staff plus up to 40 casuals in the main facility. Ten staff are employed in the sailing academy, there are 45 staff in on-site businesses and around 20 contractors.

Not many marinas can boast a 100-year-old submarine, but this one does
Topic: History
This submarine has been a fixture at the Sandringham Yacht Club since 1930. ( ABC News: Billy Draper )
By the time Australia gets the first of its next fleet of submarines, J-7 will be 113 years old, and won't have sailed anywhere in a century.
J-7 may be a familiar sight to dozens of sailors who stride past her every day at Sandringham Yacht Club, but most Melburnians won't even know she's there.
Once one of the fastest submarines in the world, the only place she's going these days is deeper into the mud.
"She was quite remarkable," the Sandringham Yacht Club's historian Graeme Disney said.
"She had a range of 5,000 miles. That's extraordinary for First World War times."
So how did this once cutting-edge submarine built for the British Navy end up rusting away next to fancy yachts and speed boats in a marina in Melbourne? Because everything new eventually becomes obsolete, and then you have to either throw it away or find some other use for it.
In J-7's case, it was a bit of both.
The fastest thing under the water

In the early days of World War I, Britain heard rumours that the Germans were building a fleet of U-boats capable of speeds much greater than any British submarine.
The rumours turned out to be false, but the British built a new class of submarines anyway.
The J-class submarines were capable of speeds of up to 19 knots at the surface, making them the fastest submarine in the world at the time.
They didn't see a lot of action during the war, but did manage to sink a U-boat and damage a couple of warships.
One of the subs, J-6, was accidentally sunk by a British ship after the captain mistook the J on the vessel's conning tower for a U and assumed it was a German submarine.
At the end of the war, Britain gave the six remaining J-class submarines to Australia as a gift.
Australia hadn't had much luck with submarines to that point, losing the only two it had during World War I within a year of their construction.
If the Australian government thought they were getting a great deal, they must've been remarkably disappointed when the J-class fleet limped into Australian waters in July 1919.
Never look a gift sub in the mouth
After a three-month voyage, during which several of the submarines broke down, they were found to be almost unusable.
One of the subs was unable to dive, which was something of an issue for a vessel that was supposed to spend much of its time underwater.

After an expensive refit, the submarines were put into service, with four of them based at Osborne House in Geelong, and two in Sydney.
The six submarines lasted just a few years in the Royal Australian Navy, with big cuts to defence spending sealing their fate in 1922.
The subs were expensive to run and the general feeling in the government was that the country didn't really need them. The enemy was defeated, who were they protecting us from? Dolphins?
The J-7 submarine saw limited service in the British Navy before it was gifted to Australia in 1919. ( Supplied: Australian War Memorial )
The decision to sell the submarines for scrap did not go down well with everyone. The former district naval officer for Victoria, Captain J.T. Richardson, was very cranky indeed.
"To scrap the six J-class submarines would be criminal," he said in February 1923.
But, the decision was made and the subs were put up for sale, with two conditions: that whoever bought them would remove them within 42 days of purchase, and would destroy them within 18 months of purchase.

The Melbourne Salvage Company bought four of them, which were used for bombing practice outside Port Phillip Heads by Australian aircraft in 1926.
The pilots must've needed the practice as it was reported in The Argus that no direct hits were made, but no bomb landed "more than about 200 feet away".
The wrecks of those four submarines are popular dive sites. Another of the J-class submarines lies in about 6 metres of water at Swan Island, near Queenscliff.
J-7 finds a permanent home at Sandringham

In the mid-1920s, Sandringham Yacht Club had hoped to buy HMAS Cerberus, which had been the depot ship for the six J-class submarines, and sink it as a breakwater.
They missed out, but instead bought the J-7 which was sunk in 1930.
Years later a stone breakwater was built, once again rendering the J-7 obsolete when all it was required to do was sit in the water and stop waves from crashing.
When the club's marina was built, it was considered too expensive to remove the sub and, anyhow, many of the members were quite attached to it.
"It's our sub," Graeme Disney said.
The submarine was purchased by Sandringham Yacht Club in 1930 and was sunk as a breakwater. ( ABC News: Billy Draper )
Graeme used to snorkle around the J-7 when he was a teenager 65 years ago, and remembers when it was in a lot better shape than it is now.
"If we dived at the side and scraped off the barnacles and seaweed you were presented with pristine grey painted steel," he said.
The pristine paint is long gone, and J-7 is now very much looking her age, peeling and crumbling slowly but surely into the bay next to millions of dollars' worth of luxury pleasure boats.
Graeme still sees people new to the marina do a double-take when they see the rusting ribs protruding from the water for the first time.
"So many people contacted me to say they had no idea Sandringham had a submarine," he said.
"Most people know about the Cerberus in Half Moon Bay but they don't know about the sub because as you can see it's buried in the midst of the marina."
Visitors to the marina are more likely to see birds on this submarine than sailors. ( ABC News: Billy Draper )
There's been a long-running but largely unsuccessful campaign to get funding to maintain the wreck of HMAS Cerberus, but there's not much hope of that kind of effort for the J-7.
"J-7 is nowhere near as significant as Cerberus, Cerberus is the last example in the world of a breastwork monitor, if we can't get funding for that the hope of getting funding for J-7 is less than nothing," Graeme said.
"My guess is it will just be allowed to rust away."
