Established in 1940, our Club history is reflected in our burgee and name. Harold Ulrich, Herbert Anderson, and Don Possun were three yachtsmen who anchored frequently in the area of Winter Harbor. They are represented by the three stars on our burgee.

During the war years, club activities were at a minimum, but rapidly resumed after the wartime fuel restrictions were lifted. The islands were largely unpopulated, and members had moorings around the Lake that were all shared. Public docks were uncrowded and easily available for overnight stays. Nonetheless, in 1949, the members formed a corporation, Endicott Estates, and chipped in $500 each to fund the purchase of a permanent home port for the Club.
