The JSC is a member of the German Sailing Association , the Berlin Sailing Association, a founding member of the Sailing-Team Germany eV and a member of the German Challenger Yacht Club .

history

Founded in 1907 as the United Joersfeld Sailing Friends sailing club, it was renamed the Joersfeld Sailing Club in 1909 . After the cessation of sailing activities during the First World War , the club developed rapidly during the Weimar Republic . In 1919, the first part of today's site in what was then Roonstrasse (today's Marlenestrasse) in the Reinickendorf district of Tegelort was acquired. A purchase in 1955 expanded the site. Port facilities, a boat shed and a clubhouse were built. In 1926 the club joined the German Sailing Association. During the Nazi era , the club was “Aryanized” , and from 1937 Jewish members had to be excluded. The club was brought into line , organization and statutes were officially given ( leader principle ) and militarily aligned. At the end of the war, refugees were housed in the clubhouse and the property and some of the boats were confiscated by the French occupying forces . From 1946, meetings were held again and the club was re-established in 1949. In mid-2010 the JSC had 111 full members, 43 youth members and 11 family members, as well as 24 guest and 21 passive members. Many club members are already in the second and sometimes third generation.

Club ownership

In addition to the property of 5800 square meters, the club owns the buildings on the site, port facilities with boat berths, a slipway and a crane for boats up to 2.5 tons. In terms of ships, the JSC has an old transport ship that is used as a regatta support boat , a cutter , two J / 24s , two 420s, as well as optimists and inflatables for trainers and regatta equipment. The members' fleet of vehicles is 69 boats of various classes , mainly sailing boats and occasionally also motor boats.

Sailing area

The club's sailing area is predominantly a river area. It covers the middle course of the Havel , which forms the federal waterway 1 here, from the confluence of the Oder-Havel Canal into the Nieder Neuendorfer See to the Eiswerder bridge north of the Spandau lock and the Tegeler See . In order to reach larger water areas, one of the two bottlenecks Scharfenberger Enge or the southern outlet of the Nieder Neuendorfer See must be passed.

activities

Many members are nationally and internationally successful as regatta sailors , others are cruising sailors, others are recreational sailors. In the large youth department, up to 80 children and young people are looked after by voluntary trainers from the association. The JSC alternates with other clubs on the Tegeler See and the middle Havel and organizes the celebrations for slipping on and off. The club has donated a cutter regatta, the “Blue Ribbon of Joersfelde”, and organizes not only club regattas but also other races such as the “Folkeboote Gold Plaque”, “O-Jollen Gold Plaque”, “420 Cup” and “Pirates' Guillotine”. Together with the Warnemünde Sailing Club and other clubs, the JSC is the organizer of the Warnemünde Week .
