Ozark Yacht Club (OYC) is conveniently located just off four-lane Highway 54 at the beautiful Lake Of The Ozarks, one of the most desirable recreation areas in the Midwest, with 40,000 acres of water and 1,150 miles of breathtaking shoreline, uniquely suited to learning the sport of sailing, from basic aerodynamics to coastal cruising navigation and chartering.

OYC offers 101 Basic Keelboat Sailing, 103 Basic Coastal Cruising, 104 Bareboat Cruising, 105 Costal Navigation, 118 Docking Endorsement and private lessons for those who prefer a more intimate setting with an instructor. Our sailing school programs are based on the ASA’s guidelines leading to internationally recognized certifications for bareboat chartering of sailboats.

To help us keep the programs efficiently fast paced, our state-of-the-art briefing room, dining facility, lodging, pool and fitness house are all located at the water’s edge directly adjacent to the boat slips.

We have numerous villas for overnight stays during the course with beautiful lakefront views. With our award-winning LakeSide Café, you will be able to enjoy your sailing school experience without ever having to leave the club.

After completion of your school experience you will be welcomed to crew one of the boats during the racing season with the Ozark Sailing Club, which makes its home at Ozark Yacht Club.
