SAYRA Club of the Month

Western Carolina Sailing Club is located on Hartwell Lake, Anderson, South Carolina.  WCSC was formed in 1963 by seventeen charter members who sailed from Portman Shoals Marina on Hartwell Lake.  After two years of holding club races and events at various launching points around the lake, seventeen acres, including a ten acre island, were leased from the Corps of Engineers for a home for the Club.  In 1966 a causeway was constructed to the island which created a protected harbor for boat anchorage.

A clubhouse was constructed on the island in 1967 and enlarged in 1973.  In 1972 the first of four slip docks was constructed by members.  Further expansion was completed in 1978 with the addition of a storage building and a restroom on the mainland.  There are now eighty-four slip docks, thirty-four anchorages and 140 spaces for dry storage.

WCSC is an active venue for sailing and hosts a successful Hospice Regatta each year.
