Description
Southern Yacht Club - Hurricane Katrina made landfall just east of New Orleans on August 29, 2005 causing widespread destruction throughout the region, including crippling damage to numerous Gulf Coast yacht clubs. Though only modestly damaged by wind and flood waters, Southern's clubhouse was ultimately destroyed by a massive fire which burned unchecked in the hours following the storm. Sadly, many historic trophies and other priceless artifacts were lost in the fire.
After two years of construction, Southern Yacht Club's fourth West End clubhouse was opened in 2009. Once again, SYC has a permanent home and, like the clubhouses before her, she is the crown jewel of the New Orleans Lakefront.
