The tale of Winnipeg’s yacht club

Advertise with us

Hey there, time traveller! This article was published 21/05/2013 (3955 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.

Recently, The Times brought forward information on the history of the Buchanan Marina site at the foot of the Louise Bridge, and the steps that have been taken to preserve the site  by acknowledging the history of this location and its importance.

I consider myself fortunate to be able to provide some information about the site through my volunteer work at this location.

Winnipeg has had very few locations over the years offering boating enthusiasts the opportunity to have a boat moored at locations along the great rivers that we are very fortunate to have for our enjoyment.

Inside the perimeter over the years, there has been the Kildonan Yacht Club, Pritchard Boat Yard, Redboine Yacht Club and even Grapes Pier Seven had docks available for seasonal mooring in the past.

Outside the perimeter, we also have the Royal Manitoba Yacht Club in West St. Paul, which continues to offer excellent amenities for the boating community.

A fully serviced yacht club came alive after Buchanan Marina was closed in the late 1980’s. The yacht club stayed there from 1985 until 1997.

The site was operated as the Point Douglas Yacht Club (PDYC) upon the demise of Buchanan Marine.  A group of likeminded boating individuals realized there was still a strong demand within the Winnipeg boating community.

A group of Winnipeg business folks were able to negotiate a lease with the province, which owned the site, and continued on with a viable boating club that provided many hours of enjoyment for over a decade at this location.

Over the years we were able to offer daily boat ramp service, summer winter storage, cradle pull-out service for larger owners who did not have trailers or for boats that were too large to have trailers. This was a very important, much-needed service for the Winnipeg boating community.

Great times were had over the years with barbecues and pancake breakfast fundraisers being organized during those long lazy days of summer. It was very common to see boaters getting together very early in the day for good times and fellowship when the sun was shining!

PDYC was always recognized as a great place to go and was an important part of the Winnipeg boating community. With all operations being run and financed by a core of volunteers, who were dedicated to ensuring Winnipeg had a great place available that offered a safe place to moor your boat and a great place to enjoy the rivers of our great province.

The Red River was very predictable for seasonal use up until about 1988. After that, we would notice what we still see today— the increasing flows and summer high water— which made it very difficult to maintain docks in a safe manner due to the fluctuating water levels.

During the 1997 flood we saw the water spill the banks at this location and submerge our riverside clubhouse. After the Flood of the Century, it was decided that we as a volunteer group felt that it was unfortunate, but very apparent, that the Point Douglas Yacht Club had sailed it last voyage.

The province, in turn, entered negotiations with the City of Winnipeg and as of today it still remains as a launch site for boating enthusiasts to use.

Our History

Gimli Yacht Club owes its beginnings to a unique set of circumstances. In 1967 Winnipeg was chosen as the site for the Pan Am Games and the most suitable location for the yachting competition was Gimli. Even before the Games were held, negotiations were initiated by the Manitoba Sailing Association regarding the acquisition of the site. However, the property was turned over to the Town following the Games. After two more years of negotiations between MSA and the Town, Gimli Yacht Club became a reality in July, 1969, when its first organizational meeting was held.

Located only 60 miles from Winnipeg and having a well-developed harbour and other facilities, such as the Recreation Center...

Unlike most yacht clubs, GYC started out well equipped with a building (donated to the Pan Am Games by Camp Shilo), land (leased from the Town) and a wharf and finger docks (build by the Pan Am Games Society), but only a handful of members. Until the airforce base at the airport closed in 1971, the CFB Sailing Club was an important member of this group in its first few years, providing some of the basic necessities, such as furniture, boats and rescue craft.

From the handful of original members, GYC has mushroomed in the decades since the inaugural meeting to a membership now in the hundreds. The Pan Am Games proved the suitability of Gimli and Lake Winnipeg for sailing. Located only 60 miles from Winnipeg and having a well-developed harbour and other facilities, such as the Recreation Center , a trailer park and camp ground, several hotels and motels, and many retail outlets, Gimli provides many advantages for competitive and casual sailors.

When the club was established In 1967

Dinghy sailors were in the majority, with only a few cruising boats. The often rough conditions of the lake demanded a rugged, stable type of boats, and the Albacore met this requirement. The first of the club boats were acquired from the Manitoba Sailing Center and were used for many years for training until they were replaced with the current fleet of Tumbleweeds, a fiberglass version of the popular Mirror dinghy. Currently, a majority of the members own keelboats although there is still a hard core of dinghy sailors. This change in membership has come about since the modifications to the harbour mouth in 1983-84 that prevented swells from entering the harbour during southeast gales. With the reputation as a safe harbour and the installation of the crane in 1984 has come a large and active keelboat fleet.

Since the 1967 Pan Am Games, GYC has been the site of many regattas at the Club, provincial, national and international levels. National regattas have included the Fireball Nationals twice, the Laser Nationals once, the Western Canada Games, the Women's Nationals and YOTS. In 1993 GYC hosted the North American Laser Championship and in 1994, we hosted the World Board Sailing Championships. Bringing the story full circle the Club hosted the Sailing Competition of the Pan American Games for a second time in 1999. The Manitoba Centennial Trophy was presented to the Club by the MSA in 170 for an open regatta to celebrate the 100 th birthday of the Province of Manitoba and the Centennial Regatta has been held at GYC usually in mid-July, although more recently in late June, every year since then. The Commodore's Cup was donated by Dan Snidal in 1970 for Club competition usually on the September long weekend. Many sailors, young and “mature”, learned their skills through the Manitoba Sailing Center , located at Gimli from 1974 to 1977, as well as the many sailing schools sponsored by the MSA and GYC.

It takes a lot of hard work to get an organization off the ground and operating smoothly

Many people deserve credit for their contribution in the Club's formative years.

They include Dan Snidal, a member of the negotiating committee and first Commodore (1969-1971); Phil Isaac, second Commodore (1972), Ab Alvi, Max Desmarais of the MSA, Dieter Janus, Mel Parsons, secretary for 3 years and the succeeding commodores:
