Clipper/Galleon at Shipyard Golf Club
About
The Clipper/Galleon Course at Shipyard Golf Club, which combines two of the three nine-hole golf courses on the property, creates an exciting combination of long fairways and perilous hazards. Clipper/Galleon has a rating of 74, with a slope of 133 from the championship tees.
With plenty of sand and water hazards, Clipper may be the most difficult of the nines. Designed by George Cobb and built in 1970, Clipper requires a good long game and a soft touch around the greens.
Galleon, the original nine holes, meanders through large oak and tall pines. Accurate placement of approach shots into heavily guarded greens is necessary on this nine.

Average at best
I would not recommend to others. Pace of play was horrendous, staff was average, and the course was not in great condition. The conditions of multiple greens was poor, would not choose to play again.
Shows Improvement
After skipping Shipyard the last few years, we decided to give it a try . We were able to grab a Hot Deal so the price was worth another try. The conditions were much better than years past. Looks like they are over seeding. There is still a ways to go before I will pay full price on this course. Pace of play was great. I appreciate the forward tees, however they were not available on every hole. This is something very important to your female golfers.
It was better last year
Played here last year twice after their re-seeded the course.it was nice last year but went downhill this year. Fairways were sparse. Greens so so.
Starter was surly. Pace was slow.
Cart girl came around mid round. I was hungry but refuse to spend $8.00 for a lukewarm hot dog. Gimme a break.
Good experience
Course was in good shape and joined a three-some. We teed off on time and finished in right at 4 hours. Weather was great and pace of play was so much better than I experienced at other courses on the island.
All round a great day on the golf course.
Conditions of the green are ok, but fairway are terrible
Island Golf
Course is excellent condition. Fairways are great and greens are smooth. Greens are a bit slow,but are easy to read. Tees are great with a lot of different distances. Beer girl got all over the course and saw her a couple times . Driving range and practice greens are well kept. Cart attendants also did a good job. Be nice if you could take carts to your car. Starter did good job taking care of tee times but seemed a bit rattled at times.Your fees are a bit high but the course is very well kept for the amount of play you get. I scheduled a tee time through Golf Now as one golfer but I was informed I was with a threesome? With 27 holes you can get a lot of players golfing but it seems the scheduling needs more times between tee times. Part of the problem is people want to golf but only play a few times a year and really slows things down. This is something that needs to be worked out.
Terrific improvement
The improvement in conditions of this course is remarkable.
Great Course
The course was in great condition for February. Greens were in perfect condition and rolled fast. Range, putting green, and chipping green were also very good. Our tee time was at 12:28. No one was in front or behind on the front 9. The back 9 pace was pretty slow. Our round still only took the average 4 hours. Would definitely recommend!
Wow!
The conditions of this facility have vastly improved.
Cart Path Only
Overall the course was great for the time of year. However don't quite understand why it was cart path only. Not wet and not too hot..
As such it took 2 1/2 hrs to play 9.
