Founded in April of 1938, with the general purpose and objective of the furtherance of boating and all of its allied activities. It also intended to foster a spirit of friendship and fellowship. The M.O.C. was founded by a group of enthusiastic boaters who, at the beginning, did not have a place to meet. Their periodic meetings were held in garages, stores, and filling stations, or any place they could get together for that purpose.

Since 1946, the Club has maintained a facility on Watson Island. This facility has been used not only by the members of the Club, but by the public as well. Since it’s occupancy of Watson Island, the M.O.C. has been an active participant in the welfare of our community and has been fervently involved in various activities.
