The club is proposing to replace buildings including the club house and junior sailing center with larger quarters, increase parking from roughly 175 to nearly 220 spaces, expand the dock, and add slips, bringing the total number to 372.

Construction is scheduled to begin in mid- to late-2011 and be done in two phases. Building improvements will be done first and take about 18 months while the water-side improvements will begin in late 2011 with construction expected to be completed in roughly 20 months. The total duration of project construction is anticipated to be 24 months.
