History
The club was established in 1899 under the name Helsingfors Arbetare Segelklubb (Helsinki workers sailing club). Most members were Swedish-speaking Finns. The first harbor was located in the western part of Helsinki. In 1919, after the Independence of Finland, the club was registered with the name Helsingfors Segelklubb.[1]
