Opening Day 2022

The sailing opening day of that year was not just another event, but a significant milestone for the Dalglish family and the Club’s legacy.

For the first time in the Club’s history, a father and son ascended to the position of Commodore a decade apart. P.C. Frank Dalglish, a revered figure in the Club, had the unique honour of presenting the Club Commodore Burgee to his son, Troy Dalglish. This momentous occasion, witnessed by family, friends, and Club members, symbolized a passing of the torch and a new chapter in the Club’s storied history.

This event underscores the Club’s tradition of fostering strong leadership and its commitment to continuity and growth. The South of Perth Yacht Club continues to make history, honouring its past while sailing confidently into the future.
