PHOTOS: Green Pond Yacht Club Opens

The new Green Pond Yacht Club is open for business.

The transformation is complete: the former Green Pond Tackle and Marina at the corner of Menauhant and Acapesket Road in East Falmouth is now officially the Green Pond Yacht Club

The members-only club is the brainchild of Falmouth native Harry Turner, who bought the property back in 2000. Last fall, Turner—who spent much of the last decade installing new docks, constructing a mechanic's garage and expanding the tackle and seafood operations—got the idea to transform the property into a yacht club, according to General Manager Kristin Boon.

Turner got the go-ahead from the town's Zoning Board of Appeals back in December to begin construction, and the club's liquor license was in January.
