The Williamstown Royal Victorian Motor Yacht Club Skyline artwork celebrates the historic motor yacht club in Nelson Place Williamstown, across the bay from Port Melbourne.
The RVMYC formed at a gathering at the Port Phillip Club Hotel in Flinders Street Melbourne, three doors from Young and Jacksons on 25 February 1904. The boats later moved to Williamstown in 1909. The Club was originally called the Victorian Launch Club.
In 1937, the Club was formally given the permission to use the prefix ‘Royal’. This marked the opening of the 1937 season, whereby Royal Charter from the Lords High Commissioners of the Admiralty London, the title ‘Royal Victorian Motor Yacht Club’ could be used.
Available in A4 and A3 sizes.
