It is affiliated with Saltsjön-Mälarens Båtförbund (SMBF) within Svenska Båtunionen (SBU), Stockholms Seglarförbund and Svenska Seglarförbundet (SSF), and thus Sweden's sports confederation.

Club championship and EBK Cup results go back to the late 1970s, showing a long racing tradition in classes such as IF, 606, J/70, H-Boot and Nordic Folkboats. In 2025 the club had its best Allsvenskan season with 8th place overall and bronze at the women's SM in Ekoln.
