Named after the great Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry, hero of the Battle of Lake Erie during the War of 1812. The Club has been raised from the ground up very literally by it's members who raised all the money to build the Club and even do most of the work themselves to this very day.
The clubhouse is decorated in a traditional nautical style with plenty of room for both members and their guests. The club offers free out of water storage for member's boats, showers and even a picnic area that was of course built by members of the club.
The club is located just a short distance from Dobbins Landing the Erie Maritime Museum and the Flagship Niagara along with many other points of interest, there is most always something to do in the area.
