For more than 100 years the club has run Flensburg Fjord Week – the 116th edition was in 2026 – and it is known for classic-yacht regattas such as the Sterling Cup for 8 Metres and 12 Metres and the 5.5 Metre Gold and Evolution Cup.

The club harbour has 250 berths on pontoons A and B, plus a travel lift, boatyard and restaurant.
