It started as a dream and that dream became a reality when in 1955 Robert R. Linn, Sr. founded Bay Haven Yacht Club along with several area businessmen. Articles of incorporation were signed and Bob Linn became Bay Haven Yacht Club's first Commodore. The club by-laws were established outlining the governing of the club.
Two years after incorporation, the club received their liquor license granted by the State of Michigan. Located at 1862 Ottawa Beach Road, Mr. Linn owned and operated a 40-slip marina, ship's store and a restaurant which was open to the public. In the early 1950's Bob was commissioned by the US Navy to build tugboats during the Korean War era.
