Helsingfors Segelklubb ry (HSK; lit.'Helsinki Sailing Club') is a yacht club in Lauttasaari, Helsinki, Finland.

History

[edit | edit source]

The club was established in 1899 under the name Helsingfors Arbetare Segelklubb (Helsinki workers' sailing club) and joined the Finnish Sailing Federation in 1912.[1] Most members were Swedish-speaking Finns. The first harbor was located in the western part of Helsinki. In 1919, after the Independence of Finland, the club was registered with the name Helsingfors Segelklubb.[2][1]

In 2016, Helsingfors Segelklubb organised the Nordic Folkboat Gold Cup.[3]
