Lake Erie Offshore Performance Association (LEOPA) was founded by a group of offshore enthusiasts in Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michian that shared a common passion for fast boats. LEOPA is nn organization that is recognized by the Inter-Lake Yachting Association, and most of its members belong to AYC-affiliated boat clubs.

LEOPA has over 150 boating members, with offshore enthusiasts from across Michigan and Ohio, as well as other parts of the United States and Canada. LEOPA hosts 3 main boating events each season between May and September, with other fun activities also planned both during the boating season and in the non-boating season of the Midwest. Our events have a friendly, relaxed atmosphere and all are welcome.

The club is a not-for-profit social organization and it operates with an elected group of club officers consisting of the Commodore, Vice Commodore and Club Treasurer. There is also a Board of Directors and other appointed positions within the organization. All positions are voluntary and without compensation.
