On September 11, 1943, a group of sailors decided to found a Club with the aim of boosting the practice of sailing.
On the 12th of October of the same year, a meeting was held where it was decided to appoint an organizing committee for a new club whose sole activity would be the practice of sailing and which should be called Clube de Vela Atlântico.
On April 19, 1944, the first General Assembly was held, where the legal existence of the Clube de Vela Atlântico was confirmed and where the first Board of Directors of the Club was appointed, with Mr. Eng. Mário Botelho de Sousa.At that same meeting, the transfer to Clube de Vela Atlântico, by the Alfândega do Porto and Health Delegation of Leixões, of a plot of land was confirmed, where the facilities of the Clube de Vela Atlântico would be built.
