ROYAL MANITOBA YACHT CLUB

 
This is the Royal Manitoba Yacht Club.  On the northern edge of the City of Winnipeg. 
 
  It was established in West Kildonan in 1955 by Gilbert Eaton and a group of like minded boating friends and was incorporated in 1956. 
 
 
It was given the "Royal" designation in 1981 for the Queen's  diamond Jubilee. 
 

We used to be frequent visitors to this club when we had our first boat  "LINDAN". 
 
 
Now this is where we have brought "Thunderbird" for winter storage. 
 
We have unloaded most of the non freezable stuff off of the boat and it's piled in the condo.  Now we are busy trying to find a place for everything. 
 
IT"S A REAL CHALLENGE
