About Us
In 1950 six avid boaters got together to form the Olympia Outboard
Boating Club. From these beginnings, the club has grown into a group
of active boaters here on our Puget Sound waters.
The club's purpose is to serve the interests of those boat owners who
navigate the South Sound To the Strait.
We support action against the pollution of our recreational waters. We
also exchange all sorts of boating information and promote safety for
those out enjoying that leisure time activity at our docks and club
house.
The present location of the club house is on Steamboat Island. It was
purchased in 1968. Over the course of years, the member ship added
80 feet of docks, 200 feet of bulkheads with steps to the beach, and 2
kitchens. Six RV spots have been added with beautiful views of the
sound.
A fire pit and kitchen area are below the club house. This area is
where the sandy beach meet the tide lands and where members
spend time telling stories, cleaning the fresh catch, along with crabs
when in season, and fish. The tide water has a great reflection of
those evening sunsets.
Come and enjoy the area as a guest by calling one of our members
on our contact list and setting up a time, or just visit the calender and
RSVP to a function. Our meetings are the first Tuesday of a new
month Thanks, and hope to see you soon.
