Located in Dun Laoghaire, The Royal St. George Yacht Club was founded in 1838 and remains one of Ireland's premier clubs. It is housed in a beautiful Victorian style clubhouse, the first part of which was built in 1843, and has been extended and modified regularly to meet the needs of the sailing members.
Currently the most popular boats raced in the club are IRC Cruisers, Dragons, Ruffians, SB3s, Squibs, and a variety of dinghy Classes. The club has a strong cruiser group.
Heritage wooden boats sailed in the club include Glens, Waterwags and IDRA 14s.
Each season the club organises a number of National and International Sailing events.
