Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron

We’re Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron. Our club of over 2,200 people has a long and proud history dating back to the 1950’s. Over all that time one thing has been constant; we’ve come together united by a love of sailing.

It’s a passion that drives us still, but we also understand that ‘getting onto the water’ is just one part of what makes a yacht club the place your friends and family want to be a part of. While it’s true that our racing program is a major focus of everything we do, we’re much more than just sailing and marina facilities. Being a member at BYS is about being part of a community that believes in the power of three little words – Family, Friendship, Sailing – to create a member experience like no other.

Those words are at the heart of everything we do. It’s reflected in the diverse range of sailing and boating we support from Off-The-beach, J70 sportsboats, keelboats and powerboats.

Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron

The blairgowrie yacht squadron has a distinguished history – its old clubhouse has served many of its members and friends for over 50 years..

With dining, function & sailing facilities that will be the envy of many, Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron will form the centrepiece of community activity for many years to come. The location is exemplary, providing direct access to water & marina as well as a beautiful spot to relax & enjoy the bay. At sea level there’s a contemporary semi-outdoor canteen leading to an amazingly large grass landing to the shore. Here you can enjoy meals & snacks – it’s the one area that will be open to the public. On the upper level, the Southern Waters Room and the Racing Lounge bistro offer year round dining for members with a bar that services both areas & includes a huge deck with unsurpassed views. One of the key aspects to the new Clubhouse will be the ability to cater to first class functions for all – corporate events, conferences, private parties and very special seaside weddings. We loved the old Clubhouse but now there’s a facility that will be able to cater to a broader community.  It’s one of this year’s great stories on the Pen.

The Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron Easter Art Show is celebrating its 15th year in 2025. A highlight in the local community’s calendar, the BYS Easter Art Show runs over the Easter long weekend and is proudly supported by Belle Property, Blairgowrie. The show raises funds for the BYS rescue boat fleet which is used to support junior, community and disabled sailing programs and has gone from strength to strength since it began in 2010.

The ongoing success of the Easter Art Show is largely due to the diversity and quality of works on display which is refreshed each year. Artists from Melbourne, the Mornington and Bellarine Peninsula’s, by invitation only, have their works exhibited showcasing a broad range of artistic works from a variety of media including indoor and outdoor sculptors. Outdoor sculpture takes pride and place on the deck and lawn which adds to the ambiance of the club.

Prizes will be awarded in a number of categories including the coveted People’s Choice award.

The viewing of works are as follows; From 6.30pm Friday 18 April Opening Night Function  10am–5pm Saturday 19 – 21 April  Tickets at the door, $5 10am–2pm Mon 1 April Tickets at the door, $5

Visitors to the art show are welcome to stay on at the yacht club and enjoy the BYS bistro and deck with stunning views of the bay, or just relax on the lawn or beach.

We look forward to welcoming you at the 2025 Easter Art Show!

Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron: 2900 Point Nepean Road, Blairgowrie 5925 9600

In 2024 we celebrated our 14th Easter Art Show and we were very lucky with the fantastic weather we experienced over the weekend, allowing members and guests to enjoy the deck area for extended periods over the weekend. It was a pleasure to welcome back our sponsors, artists, BYS members and visitors. Once again we showcased a fantastic range of artistic works in a variety of media, with indoor and outdoor sculptures continuing to add an extra dimension to the show that was very well received. We are still tallying up the final results of the Art Show, but the feedback has been very positive and we feel we still offer the ‘best show’ on the Mornington Peninsula. We had 316 works on display of which 88 were sculptures from 113 artists.

Our Opening Function on Good Friday was sold out in advance. Martin Kudnig was our MC for the evening and The Hon Zoe MacKenzie officially open the 2024 Easter Art Show. It was a great evening enjoyed by everyone and proudly sponsored by Belle Property, Blairgowrie, Tracey & Robert De Poi and Crittenden Estate. Guests had the opportunity to speak directly with artists who attended during the evening and gourmet canapes were a delight for everyone in attendance. Read more here.

History of the Easter Art Show

  • The first Easter Art Show was held in the Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron’s old clubhouse in 2010, a joint initiative of Past Commodore Bruce Colliver (dec.) and Past Commodore Jenni Maclean.
  • The first show largely works from local artist James Uhe.
  • Artist prizes are awarded at each show and as the variety of media has increased over the years, so too has the number of awards to artists.
  • During its history, over 8,000 people have visited the show.
  • In 2017, both indoor and outdoor sculpture was introduced, which was very well received by BYS members and the community.
  • In 2017, through the funds raised, the club purchased a new start boat, named “Bruce’ in honour of Past Commodore Bruce Colliver.
  • In 2018 a new Patrol 7 which acts as both a start boat and rescue boat was purchased.
  • In 2018, a People’s Choice Award was introduced and this has given art show visitors another opportunity for involvement in the art show.
  • Well-regarded judges, including Mrs Noel Waite AO, John Bredl, Dr Wendy Garden and John Cunningham, have given credibility to the Best in Show and specific art media awards.
