Estb: 1953. Location: 1310 County Road 452, Eustis.

"Available records indicate that the club was incorporated as “The Eustis Marine Club”, a corporation not-for-profit, on March 30, 1953.There is indication of informal activity, perhaps as early as 1950. Bylaws were adopted March 13, 1957 and revised January 8, 1970, at which time the name was changed to “The Lake Eustis Boating Club”.
The names Eustis Boat Club and Eustis Sailing Club were used synonymously until August 1982 when the name was changed to the Lake Eustis Sailing Club."
