The Hawkesbury River Yacht Club sails from Brooklyn, north of Sydney, on the beautiful waters of Broken Bay.

The HRYC fleet currently comprises yachts ranging from 6 to 11 metres, but also welcomes trailer sailors and sports yachts.  The club’s history reaches back to 1992.

Membership of the club ranges from experienced sailors to beginners.  All are welcome.  Membership and Boat Registration forms can be found on the Documents Page Download the Membership Application Form
