The Pontchartrain Yacht Club, founded in 1967, is a member of the Gulf Yachting Association and has produced national sailing champions and world-class racers. The yacht club was ravaged by Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
Spartan Building Corporation and architecture firm Piazza Architecture Planning were contracted to help bring the yacht club’s location back. The new elevated Pontchartrain Yacht Club reopened for business in 2007.
