The Istanbul Sailing Club was founded on
2 February 1952. It is the oldest and biggest yacht club in Turkey,
with more than 3,000 members. The club was appointed as a "society of
public interests". Among its founding members was Captain Ruhi
Sarialp, who won with his crew a bronze medal in the London Olympics
(1948), in the Triple Jump series. More recently, club member
Enver Adakan ranked 8th in the Sydney Olympics (2000), in the
Finn series.
