Lake Mission Viejo Yacht Club is a small sailing club whose members enjoy sailing and the social interaction and camaraderie that go with it.

Southern California Yachting Association.
Lake Mission Viejo Yacht Club (LMVYC) is a member of Southern California Yachting Association (SCYA) which allows our members to sail in regattas at more than ninety affiliated yacht clubs in Southern California and to participate in seminars and educational programs offered by those clubs.
LMVYC members also enjoy dining privileges at some of these yacht clubs.

Monthly Regattas
Seven Club regattas, the SCYA Mid Winter Regatta, and two Invitational Regattas are scheduled throughout the year; each regatta normally consists of three or four races. All Club regattas are held on Sundays. The races are open to all Lake Mission Viejo registered sailboats, including Lake rental boats. Rental boats are available free at each regatta for all LMVYC members. The Club also owns four Sabots and four Balboa 13s which are available for members use.
Registration is at 12:00 noon in the Clubroom.
Non sailing LMVYC members are invited to contact the race chairman about helping on the race committee boat.
