Follow @RVMYC

The RVMYC is one of the oldest Royal Motor Yacht Clubs in Australia, as Commodore I hope to encourage participation and continue the re-development of our facilities and heighten the boating experience of all members and their guests. You are most welcome to visit and enjoy our club at any time.

History

The Club was first called the Victorian Launch Club founded in 1904, this was later changed to the Victorian Motor Boat Club.

The club met for many years at the Port Phillip Club Hotel, until new premises were acquired at a site near the current Ferry Terminal at Princes Bridge Wharf.

By 1937 the Club was formally given permission to use the prefix 'Royal' for services rendered.
