	BYC traces its roots to 1891 when the original Baltimore Yacht Club was formed in Baltimore City. Sue Island became its home with the incorporation of Baltimore Yacht Club, Inc. in 1939. At that time BYC was actually an island with access via an hourly ferry running from the mainland. Automobile access was accomplished in 1945 with a causeway linking Sue Island to the Holly Neck Peninsula of Baltimore County. The purpose of the club as stated in its Articles of Incorporation, is "...the promotion of boating to make the sport a safe, clean, healthful and economic means of recreation."
** Baltimore Yacht Club's location and its facilities are among the finest on the Chesapeake Bay. The view from the "the hill" is exceptional whether from the clubhouse, deck or the pool area. The large modern clubhouse offers panoramic views from the bar, dinning room, Captain's Lounge and lower level catering area (Island View Room). A professional manager and staff ensure quality dinning, beverage and catering services.  ** The spacious pool with diving board is tended by professional lifeguards and is open from Memorial Day through Labor Day. A snack bar offering light lunch and refreshments (including snowballs) is adjacent to the pool area. An outside service window to the clubhouse bar is available on weekends.
	"The basin" offers secure dockage with 221 slips up to 70 feet. Larger vessels can be accommodated on a transient basis on the T-heads. Services include electric, water and cable TV at each slip (through newly installed "state-of-the-art pedestals", and paging service with pier phones (permanent telephone service is available to permanent slip holders).
