Welcome to the website of the Fremantle Cruising Yacht Club.

Challenger Harbour was built for the America's Cup Challenge in 1988 and subsequently became a haven for cruising yachtspersons. Many of these planned long distance cruises to far away places.

This core of dedicated people who shunned the belief that a yacht club should encourage racing, uniforms and strict rules joined together in 1993 to form the Fremantle Cruising Yacht Club. Another tradition of the club is living aboard boats while planning cruises. The club also welcomes cruising yachties from far away places.

The Fremantle Cruising Yacht Club has now grown into an organisation controlling over 50 pens in Challenger Harbour with cruising members in all the great oceans of the world.
