Noroton Yacht Club (NYC) is located in Darien, CT USA and was founded in 1928. It is the home yacht club of famous sailboat designer Bruce Kirby (Laser, Ideal 18, Sonar, Pixel) and 2012 US Olympic Laser sailor Rob Crane. Noroton Yacht Club has one of the best junior sailing programs on Long Island Sound, teaching kids from 8–17 years old over an 8 week period during the summer. Noroton has a large fleet of Sonars, and coordinates club races each week. One of their members, Rick Doerr will be competing on the U.S. Paralympic Team in Rio, Brazil in a Sonar.
