Directions to Area Lakes / TASC Sailing Venues

Memphis Yacht Club (on Mud Island)

  • Take North Parkway West past St. Jude's where it turns into Auction Ave
  • Cross the Auction Avenue bridge (AW Willis Memorial Bridge), after the bridge turn left (south)
  • Go south to the guard at the gate to Mud Island Park
  • Tell the Guard you are there because of the fundraiser at Maria Montessori and want to launch at the Yacht Club
  • If there is a problem, tell him to check with Fletcher Golden at Maria Montessori

Raising your mast on the ramp is very difficult due to the sharp incline - it is a better idea to rig in the parking lot on top and tow to the ramp. Check for any obstructions or power lines (although last time we looked there were none)
