Palmer Cove Yacht Club

Nestled amidst the rich history and natural beauty of Salem, Massachusetts, Palmer's Cove Yacht Club has been a beloved hub for boating enthusiasts for over 80 years. Founded in 1934, our club boasts a vibrant and welcoming community of boaters, sailors, and fishermen who share a deep appreciation for the North Shore's stunning coastline.

A Legacy of Maritime Heritage

Our story begins with Wilfred LeBlanc and Joseph Gagnon, who recognized the burgeoning interest in boating in the late 1920s. From humble beginnings on a granite pier with a single float, the club has evolved into the thriving organization it is today.

Over the years, Palmer's Cove Yacht Club has moved to its current location on Leavitt Street and proudly built its own clubhouse. Throughout the decades, the club has weathered storms and celebrated countless triumphs, fostering a strong sense of camaraderie and belonging among its members.
