Florida Yacht Club - Jacksonville, Florida



FYC150 Project


Project Vision

In the aftermath of the flooding and damage from Hurricane Irma, the Board of Governors moved quickly to renovate the portion of the clubhouse that was damaged. That year, Commodore Tuohy, established the Dock Advisory Committee, and the Board began working on items needed to plan and secure our future.

Over the last few years, we have worked diligently to build a foundation that will guide us to a more established vision for our membership. Members were surveyed in 2020 to determine the needs of our club as we developed our Capital needs into a Master Plan.

Through our efforts with Club Benchmarking (Financial Planning), Peacock & Lewis and ELM (Land Based Master Plan) and ATM (Sea Based Master Plan), we have been able to finalize a multiyear vision that will facilitate moving into our Sesquicentennial with new facilities. The Board of Governors believes this plan will guide us in the years to come and provide a clear vision for current and future Commodores and Boards to make decisions on how to implement improvements into the next decade.
