The Point Chevalier Sailing Club was established in 1919 when a group of enthusiasts acquired a piece of land in the area of Joan St and Harbour View Road. In 1922-23 the club tendered for the defunct Isolation Hospital building and used the timber for the first clubhouse which was opened in 1923. The club become an incorporated society in that same year. Access to the water was an ongoing challenge due to the terrain and no roadway.

Investigation into reclamation sites continued for many years, and finally got traction in the mid-1960s when agreement with the City council was reached for one at the end of Raymond Road. In the late 1980s, the ground started to slip at the old Harbour View Road clubhouse. A new clubhouse was designed for the Raymond St Reserve by architect Alastair Madill, and was opened in 1990.
