What year did Irwin Marina become Mountain View Yacht Club?

I remember when they had boats displayed in the glass partitioned front of the main building mid late 60s.
It was then I became addicted to a boat brand that came from Thunder Alley.
There in the front of the building was a sweet sixteen. Yellow with white stripes, and there was a foot accelerator in place of the traditional throttle.
Smitten with it as a only a 14 year old could be, although truth tell still smitten with the one I have now at 65...thank you Gilford Marine.
