Photos: Inside the Exclusive New York Yacht Club in NYC

Located on 37 West 44th Street, the New York City Yacht Club is a private social and yachting club founded by a prominent New Yorker named John Cox Stevens. Originated on July 30th, 1844, the original purpose of the club was simple: to race sailing yachts. Today, the club is composed of over 3,000 members dedicated to both yacht racing and design. As one of New York’s most elite social clubs, membership to the NYYC is very exclusive which makes photos hard to come by, but we were able to get a look inside the stunning club.

The club was first started during an outing on Steven’s own yacht Gimcrack with eight friends. On that boat, anchored in New York Harbor, the group developed their idea to form the NYYC. They designated Stevens as commodore, and three days later, announced their launching of a yacht club cruise to Newport, Rhode Island : the beginning of the historical connection between these two cities. In 1845, the NYYC’s first clubhouse was built on land granted by Stevens in Hoboken, NJ, in close proximity to the Hudson River.

The opening of the Gothic-styled clubhouse was followed by the club’s first regatta. This turned into the club’s first tradition of the “Annual Regatta,” occurring every year with exception of a few drastic events in American history: the Civil War, the Spanish-American War, World War I and II. Today, the NYYC is looking on its 163rd Annual Regatta.

A few years after the opening of the NYYC, Stevens and other club members bought the schooner-yacht America. In 1851, they sailed it to the Isle of Wight in the Solent- a hotbed for yachting in England . They entered a free-for-all around the Isle of Wight, of which they won the Royal Yacht Squadron’s “Hundred Guinea Cup,” further solidifying their title’s as founders of the NYYC. The trophy of the race was donated to the NYYC in 1857, renaming it the “ America’s Cup .” It was meant to be used as a challenge cup for honorable racing between nations. From this point forward, NYYC boats won 81 of 93 races held at the club, often regarded as the longest winning streak in all sports.

Around 1898, member Commodore J. Pierpont Morgan donated three lots on West 44th Street to build an entirely new clubhouse. Now 116 years old, the building was constructed in the beaux-arts style by Whitney Warren and Charles D. Wetmore. It first opened in 1901, and is most renowned for its Model Room and library. A number of races and traditions followed the establishment of the new clubhouse, including the Disabled World Sailing Championship, the Rolex IMS Offshore World Championship, and the Rolex Transatlantic Challenge. Today, the NYYC remains one of the oldest and most exclusive yacht clubs in the world.

Eight Bells: Thomas Harrington

Published on May 7th, 2021 by Editor -->

Thomas J. Harrington

Thomas J. Harrington, the 63rd Commodore of the New York Yacht Club and a champion of its traditions and history, passed away on the afternoon of April 29. Commodore Harrington, who led the Club in 2013 and 2014, was 81 years old. He joined the Club in 1991.

“Commodore Harrington brought great energy and passion to the concept of bringing the Club to members outside of our physical clubhouses,” says current Commodore Christopher J. Culver. “His vision has become fully realized during this pandemic.”

Commodore Harrington’s passion for sailing had started while an officer with the U.S. Marine Corps, where he achieved the rank of Captain, and developed as he pursued a graduate degree in business administration at Columbia Business School in New York City.

He moved to London after graduating, working for Chemical Bank, and purchased half-ownership in a Soling, which he raced on the Solent. Upon his return to North America, he dove into larger yachts, racing in the Caribbean and then in New England and the Mid Atlantic aboard his J/30 and J/35, both named Obstreperous.

He fostered a loyal crew, many of whom would go on to join the New York Yacht Club, and enjoyed success in both classes. In September of 1995, sailing with largely the same team, Harrington won the J/30 North American Championship and the J/35 National Championship on consecutive weekends. Commodore Harrington also knew the importance of giving back to the sport, and he served in leadership positions for one-design classes. Also a member of American Yacht Club, where he was awarded their Yachtsman of the Year.

“My friendship with Tom spans almost 40 years, numerous regattas, a number of one-design classes, and two one-design national championships,” says NYYC Secretary Peter Benedetto II, who was a longtime member of Commodore Harrington’s crew. “Our membership and his progression in leadership at the Club has been a cherished part of our history together.

“He has always been a dear friend, sailing companion and mentor to me on and off the water. I can only think of his jovial personality and always sage advice whenever we were together. He will be dearly missed.”

After moving on from one-design racing, Commodore Harrington built Black Watch, a Hinckley Sou’wester 42. The stately dark-hulled sloop was a familiar sight on the Annual Cruise and at other events. Commodore Harrington twice raced her to Bermuda.

He was also part of a consortium of Club members who formed the Black Watch Alliance and purchased the 68-foot 1938 Olin Stephens-designed Black Watch (formerly Edlu II). The boat served on submarine patrols off Eastern Long Island during the Second World War.

Commodore Harrington enjoyed a long career at Chemical Bank, including as president of its International Leasing subsidiary. After leaving Chemical Bank, he founded Spectrum Capital, Ltd. in 1985, serving as president and CEO.

Spectrum Capital, Ltd. was an investment banking joint venture with what is today Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group and Mitsubishi Corporation. For 30 years, amongst its clients were Boeing, Airbus, British Airways, Qantas, and several US carriers, including American, United, Southwest and Alaska.

He served as a Trustee Fellow at Fordham University, where he earned his undergraduate degree.

He is survived by his wife Alane and their sons Jamison and Tucker.

VICE COMMODORE CLARE HARINGTON

The Future of Sailing

Clare Harrington, the first woman to reach the ranks of Vice Commodore at the New York Yacht Club, on the next generation of sailors and the innovative designs of the upcoming America’s Cup

Last fall, Clare Harrington was appointed the Vice Commodore of the New York Yacht Club, becoming the first woman to hold the second-in-command position of the historic institution.

“People have made kind of a big deal about it,” she says of becoming the first woman Commodore at the Club. “I like to think it’s not a thing, but of course, it is a thing.”

Harrington was raised on Long Island, and she first discovered her love for sailing on the Long Island Sound.

“I grew up sailing,” she says. “I started racing at some point. I was terrible when I started; I got better.”

She eventually found herself part of the Martha’s Vineyard sailing scene, where she skippered “Shields” out of the Edgartown Yacht Club — at a time when very few women were skippers. In 2000, she became a member of the New York Yacht Club.

“ I joined the race committee, and from there I was nominated to be the chair of the race committee,” Harrington says. At the time, 2017, she was the first woman to be nominated as the chair of any committee at the club. Now, two other women are chairs of different committees.

“We’re all trustees”

The New York Yacht Club was founded in 1844, and the Race Committee was established in 1845 (it was initially known as the Rules Committee). In 1987, the NYYC acquired Harbour Court in Newport, which is the former home of Commodore John Nicholas Brown. The Newport clubhouse opened in 1988. Today, the NYYC has about 3,400 members, hailing from around the world.

In 2021, Harrington was nominated and then voted in as Rear Commodore, the Number Three position at the Club. Positions are usually held for two-year terms, although you must be voted in annually. It’s all but expected that the person who becomes Rear Commodore will become Vice Commodore, and then Commodore — although formal voting must take place to ensure it’s all official.

The voting body is formed of trustees and the major committee heads. Nominations come from the nominating committee, which is made up of past commodores.

Once a person becomes chair of a committee, as Harington did for the race committee, they also become a member of the executive committee.

“We’re all trustees,” says Harrington, explaining that everyone is responsible for the health and well-being of the club and “staying true to the mission.”

New York Yacht Club - History

The New York Yacht Club was founded on July 30, 1844 by nine gentlemen. John Cox Stevens, the leader of this group, and a prominent citizen of New York with a passion for sports, was elected commodore. George L. Schuyler and Hamilton Wilkes were also NYYC founders that, together with Stevens and two others, created the syndicate that built and raced the great schooner-yacht, America . Wilkes served as the club’s first vice-commodore. Schuyler played a key role in the founding of the America's Cup regatta, and served as its unofficial consultant until his death in 1890.

In 1845, the club’s burgee was designed. The waters off Newport have been a key sailing venue for the NYYC since the beginning of its history. Indeed, the day the club was founded in 1844, its members resolved to sail from the Battery to Newport. Two days later they did, with several stops on the way, and trials of speed.

During the first decades of the club's history, racing for prize money was the objective among most members. In 1851, a syndicate of NYYC enthusiasts built and raced America , capturing the "One Hundred Sovereign Cup" at the annual regatta of the Royal Yacht Squadron. On July 8, 1857, the coveted trophy was donated to the NYYC, to serve as a challenge cup for sportsmanlike competition between nations. The "America's Cup Race," named for its first winner, played a central role in the history of the club.

In 1865, the Club was incorporated, adopting the motto: "Nos agimur tumidis velis" -- "We go with swelling sails." During this time, membership transformed from the "old guard" to a new generation of yachtsmen, who built large schooner yachts captained by professionals. Marking this transition was the 1866 resignation of Commodore Edwin Augustus Stevens, brother of founder John Cox Stevens and member of the America syndicate.

The year 1866 is remembered in club annals for the legendary "Transatlantic Race." In December, the NYYC schooners Henrietta , Fleetwing , and Vesta raced from Sandy Hook to the Needles, Isle of Wight for a $90,000 winner-take-all prize. The Henrietta , owned by 21-year-old James Gordon Bennett, Jr., and skippered by Captain Samuel S. Samuels, a professional, won the race in 13 days, 21 hours and 55 minutes. Bennett would be elected commodore in 1871.

In 1876, the Mohawk , a large centre-board schooner, capsized due to its sheets being "made fast" (fastened securely) when a freak squall struck. Vice-Commodore William T. Garner, his wife and crew died in the accident. It is believed that this tragedy led to the extinction of the great centerboard schooner yachts. The Mohawk was later sold to the U.S. Navy and recommissioned as the U.S. Eagre.

"Paine was born August 26, 1833, in Boston, Massachusetts, son of Charles Cushing Paine and Fannie Cabot Jackson, and great-grandson of Robert Treat Paine, one of the signers of the United States Declaration of Independence. His brother, Sumner Edward Jackson Paine, was a 2nd Lieutenant in Company A, 20th Regiment Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry and was killed during the repulse of Pickett's Charge on July 3, 1863, at the Battle of Gettysburg. He graduated from Harvard in 1853 and made a considerable fortune in railroad enterprises. In 1861 he entered the Federal service as a captain in the 22nd Massachusetts Infantry. The next year he was sent to Ship Island, Mississippi. In October, he was commissioned as the first colonel of the 2nd Louisiana Infantry. During the siege of Port Hudson (May 24�July 8, 1863) he commanded a brigade. On March 4, 1864, Paine resigned his commission and returned to Massachusetts. The following July, he again entered the service as a brigadier general. On September 29, Paine led a division of black troops at New Market Heights, located south of Richmond, Virginia. Paine participated in both expeditions against Fort Fisher (December 1864/January 1865), although his troops played only a minor role. His division was however more actively engaged during the following Battle of Wilmington. After the war, he served briefly as the district commander at New Berne, and managed to arrange the retrieval of Robert Gould Shaw's captured sword, so that it could be returned to the bereaved family. On January 15, 1866, he was brevetted as a major general of volunteers. During his later years, Paine took a great interest in yachting. He was the owner of the Puritan, the Mayflower, and the Volunteer, each of which successfully defended the America's cup against a British challenger. Paine was one of the oarsmen in the first boat race between Harvard and Yale (August 1852), which was the first inter-collegiate sporting event in North America. He would be one of the charter members of The Country Club (Brookline, Massachusetts), the prototype of country clubs everywhere, and built one of the first golf courses in North America in Weston, Massachusetts. He reputedly played with red golf balls, so as to be able to find them in the winter among the snowdrifts. Paine helped finance the founding of Middlesex School (Concord, Massachusetts), of which his son-in-law Frederick Winsor was the founder and first headmaster. Paine's interest in sports continued into the next generation: two of his sons, John B. and Sumner, won pistol-shooting events at the first modern Olympic Games (Athens 1896).� Source: accessed 10 April 2019, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Jackson_Paine Note: New York Times Obituary, accessed 10 April 2019, https://timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1916/08/15/104685538.pdf Peter Edwards , 13 April 2019

About the 44th Street Clubhouse

In 1897, Commodore J. Pierpont Morgan’s unexpected purchase and donation of a three-lot site on West 44th Street was the gift on which the New York Yacht Club would erect its first permanent Clubhouse. Designed by the celebrated Warren & Wetmore architectural firm and completed in 1901, the historic Landmark building—so designated by New York City’s prestigious Landmark Preservation Commission—is a preeminent example of Beaux Arts architecture.

About Harbour Court

Conceived by the Boston-based consortium of Cram, Goodhue and Ferguson, the Renaissance Norman-style mansion was completed in 1906, five short years after the 44th Street Clubhouse. The former residence of the late NYYC Commodore John Nicholas Brown, Harbour Court was acquired by the Club in 1988, and has since evolved into the internationally recognized Clubhouse and sailing center that it is today.

About Station 10

In 1845, Commodore John Cox Stevens commissioned architect Alexander Jackson Davis to design the New York Yacht Club’s first Clubhouse—a distinctive structure influenced by the Gothic Revival school. Originally erected in Hoboken, New Jersey, it was later moved to Glen Cove, New York, where it was known as Station 10. The structure was later moved to Mystic Seaport in Connecticut before a final journey to its lasting home at Harbour Court.

CONSIDER MAKING A

Over the next decade, with multiple projects on the horizon, in the planning stages, or under way at both Harbour Court or 44th Street, major funding is required to ensure that these Clubhouses are preserved for future generations. The ongoing restoration and preservation of these historic properties is made possible by the New York Yacht Club Foundation through your generous support.

Yacht Clubs

New York Yacht Club

The mission of the New York Yacht Club is to attract and bring together a dedicated group of yachting and naval members to share and foster their interest in yachting and yacht racing; to sustain a leadership role in yachting, its history, its development, the preservation of its traditions, and the furtherance of good seamanship; to promote the highest form of Corinthian sportsmanship in national and international yachting forums and yacht racing competitions.

Stories from New York Yacht Club

On July 30, 1844, John Cox Stevens (1785-1857) and eight of his friends met aboard Stevens’ yacht Gimcrack, anchored off the Battery in New York Harbor. That afternoon, they established the New York Yacht Club (NYYC) and made three critical decisions that day: first, they elected Stevens as Commodore of the Club; second, they agreed to develop rules and regulations to govern the Club; and, third, they resolved to cruise to Newport, Rhode Island, initiating the enduring connection between the Club and New England. The Club’s young fleet of eight schooner yachts set sail from New York Harbor for Newport three days later, marking the Club’s first Annual Cruise. During the passage, they made stops at various ports on Long Island Sound and even held informal speed trials. Upon reaching Newport, the members met up with yachtsmen from Boston to socialize and engage in racing activities. On August 8, the Club hosted a fleet race around Conanicut Island, a popular racecourse today. The year that followed was a busy one for the Club. It adopted its Rules and Regulations, opened its first clubhouse and held its first Annual Regatta.

The New York Yacht Club held its first Annual Regatta–a fleet race for a prize cup–on July 17, 1845. Nine yachts started opposite the new clubhouse at 9 a.m. on the Hudson River. They sailed to a turning mark near Sandy Hook in the Lower Bay and returned—a 38-mile course. The yacht Cygnet won, earning fame as the first winner of North America’s longest-running sailing regatta. Today, the New York Yacht Club has its signature clubhouse, a National Historic Landmark, on West 44th Street in New York, and a waterfront clubhouse, Harbour Court, in Newport. The Club’s first clubhouse survives. It was installed on the grounds of Harbour Court in 1999, where it serves as a reminder of the Club’s origins.

The Club continues to run its Annual Regatta, presented by Rolex. The Club also hosts the biennial Rolex New York Yacht Club Invitational Cup, for international Corinthian sailors representing their yacht clubs and nations and the parallel event for U.S. yacht clubs, the Resolute Cup. The Club also hosts and participates in other national, North American and world championships.

rom 1884 to 1900, the clubhouse was a townhouse at 67 Madison Avenue. By 1898, it was chockablock with “models, members, and memorabilia,” according to the New York Daily Tribune. It was then that Commodore J. Pierpont Morgan stunned fellow members by announcing he would donate three lots on West 44th Street to build a new clubhouse. The building, brilliantly designed with nautical motifs by Whitney Warren, opened in 1901. It is famous for its Model Room and Library. The New York Times wrote of the clubhouse in 1906, “Except for the absence of motion, one might fancy oneself at sea.”

In 1987, the New York Yacht Club acquired Harbour Court, the former summer home of Commodore John Nicholas Brown, in Newport, creating a new energy and focus. The waterfront clubhouse opened in 1988 with 1,500 members and guests in attendance. In 2019, Harbour Court hosted the Club’s Dosquicentennial Celebration for members and friends to celebrate the Club’s 175 years of history.

The New York Yacht Club has hosted Race Week at Newport presented by Rolex since 1998 and many other regattas in recent years including world championships for the Etchells, J/70, Farr 40 and Melges 20 classes, the J Class Worlds, the Global Team Race Regatta, the Transatlantic Race, and the IC37 National Championships to name a few.

The Club is also highly active in team and match racing. In 2006, the Club purchased 14 Sonars in dedication of these activities. In 2014, the fleet was increased to 22 Sonars, and today, team racing at the New York Yacht Club offers some of the most intense competition in the country.

Since 2009 the New York Yacht Club has conducted the biennial Rolex New York Yacht Club Invitational Cup. After a successful decade of racing in the Swan 42, the eighth one-design class created by the New York Yacht Club since 1900, the Invitational Cup transitioned to using the Club’s fleet of 20 IC37 race boats in 2019. These purpose-built machines, combined with one-design sails from North Sails, identical gear and standardized rig tune, create a level platform for amateur big-boat racing. Yacht club teams worldwide and Corinthian (amateur) sailors flock to Newport to race in this competition. During the first Invitational Cup in 2009, 19 yacht club teams from 14 countries and four continents competed, and the New York Yacht Club emerged as the winner. Since 2009, more than 1,000 sailors, comprised of teams from more than 40 yacht clubs representing 21 countries and all six continents, have competed in at least one edition of the Rolex New York Yacht Club Invitational Cup.

On the 30th of July, 1814, there assembled on board the yacht Gimerack, off the Battery in this city, the following-named gentlemen, having for their ob ject the organization of club for the systematic fostering of the noble art of yachating: JOHN C. STEVENS, representing the yacht Gimerak; Hamilton Wilkes, yacht Spray; William Edgar, yacht Cygnet; John C. Jay, yacht La Coquille; George L. Schuyler, yacht Dream; James M. Waterbury, yacht Minna; Louis A. Depeau, yacht Mist; James Rogers, yacht Ida; George B. Rollins, yacht Petrel.

At this meeting the club was organized, by-laws and regulations adopted, and JOHN C. STEVENS unanimously chosen Commodore. In accordance with a resolution to that effect, the above yachts, with the exception of the Ida, made a cruise to Newport, R.I., stopping at Huntington, L.I., New-Haven, Gardner's Bay, Oyster Point, and arrived at their destination on a Monday afternoon, having had a very pleasant cruise. The night following their arrival at Newport, they were joined by the pilot-boat Belle, Capt. R.B. FORBES, and the yacht Northern Light, Capt. WINCHESTER, both of Boston. Thus the New-York Yacht Club, which is now known the world ever as one of the most prosperous, began its career.

The first regular election of officers of the club was held on the 17th March, 1845, when the following gentlemen were chosen.

Commodore, JOHN C. STEVENS; Vice Commodore, HAMILTON WILEES; Corresponding Secretary, GEORGE B. ROLLINS; Recording Secretary, JOHN C. JAY; Treasurer, WILLIAM EDGAR. So popular was this movement, that almost immediately members began to flock in, and hardly an annual meeting has since been held, that the club has not received accessions of gentlemen ranking high in the social and financial circles of the community. In 1845, the first meeting of the club was held in the club-house, in the Elysian Fields, Hoboken, which was erected for the purpose by the liberality of Commodore STEVENS, who owned the grounds, and gave the privilege of using the same to the club.

On the 6th June, 1848, the first annual regatta of the club took place. The following yachts were entered and started, viz.:

Second Class. -- 50 tons and under: allowance of time, 45 seconds per ton; measurement by displacement.

Sloop Lancet, 19 tons, R.R. Patton, started.....10 0 0.

Shcr. LA Coquille, 21 tons, J.C. Jay, started....10 0 30.

Schr. Dr[???]a[???], 281 tons, J.P. Hall, started...10 7 7.

Schr. Spray, 34 tons, H. Wilkes, started.......10 11 15.

Schr. Cygnet, 39 tons, D.L. Suydam, started...10 15 0.

First Class. -- Over 50 tons, allowance of time 35 seconds per ton.

Schr. Siren, 60 tons, W.F. Miller, started.......10 20 0.

Schr. Cornelia, 75 tons, Wm. Edgar, started....10 28 45.

Sloop Maria, 118 tons, R.L. Stevens, started....10 33 50.

The yachts arrived at the stake boat, off the Clubhouse, in the following order:

Schooner Carnelia................................. 3 12 40.

Schooner Siren..................................... 3 59 52.

Schooner Cygnet.................................... 4 14 35.

Schooner L[???]uille................................ 4 17 25.

Schooner Spray................................... 4 21 -- .

Schooner Dream........................... Time not taken.

Sloop Lancet...............................Time not taken.

The Maria was dismasted on her return, between Jersey city and Hoboken, and was, at the time, ahead of all except the Cornelia. The yachts had a head tide all the way, the wind west northwest and northwest, and part of the time very fresh.

The prizes were awarded as follows:

First prize, fast class, Cornelia.

Second prize, first class, Siren.

First prize, second class Cygnet.

Second prize, second class, LaCoquille.

On the 5th of June, 1849, the Maria, 119 tons, Cornelia, 75 tons, Siren, 65, tons, Ultra, 68 tons, Sybil, 37 tons, and Spray, 34 tons, were entered.

In the year 1855, after having filled the position with honor for eleven years, Commodore STEVENS tendered his resignation to the club in a letter wherein he said:

"The conviction of my inability longer to perform the duties that Commodore should be both willing and able to do, renders this determination on my part if not absolutely necessary, at least advisable. I do not want the will, but I lack both the health and spirits to enable me to make the attempt. Old ago and hard service have worked with me their usual and inevitable results, and I cannot but sigh to think 'I shall never more be fit for the sea.' That I am fairly entitled to my discharge, I trust you will admit, when I tell you that I have been a yacht-owner for more than half a century, commencing in 1892 as builder, captain, cook and all hands of the celebrated yacht Diver, nine feet long, three feet wide, and three feet deep, and ending as Commodore of a squadron whose flag-ship (Maria) carries her pennant 150 feet above the surface of the sea."

Mr. WILLIAM EDGAR, one of the founders of the Club, was then elected Commodore; but after retaining the office for four years, he also resigned. Mr. MOSES H. GRINNELL, was next tendered the honorable position, but declined to accept it, because of a contemplated visit to Europe.

The following officers were then elected in 1860:

Commodore, Edward A. Stevens; Vice-Commodore, Ambrose C. Kingsland; Secretary, Hamilton Morton; Treasurer, Robert S. Hone; Measurer, Charles H. Haswell; Surgeon, Dr. G.F. Woodward; Regatta Committee; Charles H. Haswell, J. Howard Wainwright, John C. Jay.

Messrs Wainwright and Jay resigned from the Committee, and Messrs Westray and Rollins were elected to fill their places.

These gentlemen retained their positions until the last election, held in February this year, when the following officers were chosen:

Commodore, Edwin A. Stevens; Vice-Commodore, Wm. H. McVickar; Rear-Commodore, Alex. Major; Secretary, Hamilton Morton; Treasurer, Robert S. Hone; Measurer, Alfred W. Craven, Regatta Committee -- George L. Schuyler, Wm. W. Shippen, U.P. Hosack.

The total number of yachts at present belonging to the club is twenty-eight schooners, eleven sloops and two steamers. Many familiar names are not in the list this year, they having been sold for various purposes, such as pilot boats, roasters, &c.; but many new names appear, and it is anticipated now that the club is on a firmer footing than ever, that the number of its yachts will steadily increase until it numbers its hundreds.

At the last session of the Legislature this club was incorporated. The act reads as follows:

SECTION 1. Edwin A. Stevens, Ambrose C. Kingsland, Alexander Major, Robert S. Home, William H. McVickar, Anson Livingston. Hamilton Morton, and such other persons as are now associated as a Yacht Club in the City of New-York, or may hereafter become associated with them, are hereby constituted a body corporate by the name City of New-York, for the purpose of encouraging yacht building and naval architecture, and the cultivation of naval science.

SEC. 2. The said corporation shall have power to make and adopt a constitution, by laws, rules and regulations for the admission and government of its members, as well as for their suspension and expulsion; for the election of its officers and defining their duties, and for the safe keeping, management and disposition of its property and funds. It may also, from time to time, alter or repeal such constitution, by-laws, rules and regulations.

SEC. 3. The trustees of said corporation shall consist of all the members of the club who are, or shall be for the time being, owners of yachts duly enrolled or entered on the records of the club, and shall continue to be trustees so long as said members are the owners of such yachts.

SEC. 4. For the transaction of the business of the corporation, the owners of seven yachts, duly enrolled or entered on the records of the club, shall constitute a quorum; and every decision of a majority of said owners duly assembled as a board or meeting for the transaction of business, shall be valid as a corporate act, unless otherwise provided in the constitution or by-laws.

SEC. 5. The said corporation may purchase and hold or lease any real or personal estate: but the value of the real estate so held, or to be held by it, shall not exceed one hundred thousand dollars.

SEC. 6. The said corporation shall also possess the powers and be subject to the restrictions and liabilities contained in the third title of the eighteenth chapter of the first part of the Revised Statutes.

SEC. 7. This act shall take effect immediately.

Each candidate for admission to the club must be proposed and seconded in writing by some member of the club. Each member, on his election, shall pay the sum of $25, which will include his dues for the current year. Each subsequent annual payment to be $25, and to become due at the first general meeting of the year. Foreigners, members of Yacht Clubs in their own country, and not residing in the United States, shall be exempt from all payments, except the first, of $25. No yacht shall be represented in the club, unless by her design and construction she is well suited to accompany the squadron on a cruise. Any yacht which may be let or hired shall be debarred all rights and privileges of the club during the time in which she may be so let or hired, and the owner of any yacht infringing this rule shall be liable to expulsion.

The distinguishing signal of the club shall be a pointed burgee, its width being two-thirds of its length; the device, a white five-pointed star in the centre of two red stripes, they being in width one-fifth of that of the signal, one running lengthwise through it, in the middle; the other running crosswise through it, at one-third the length of the signal from its head -- all on a blue field.

The model of every yacht entered for a regatta shall be the property of the club, and retained in its possession, and no person other than a United States naval constructor shall be permitted to copy it, except he shall have obtained written authority from the owner or builder of the yacht.

The following is a list of the honorary members of the club:

Secretary of the Navy, Admiral of the New-York Station, Commander of Navy-yard, Brooklyn, exofficio; Silas H. Stringham, U.S.N.; James Glynn, U.S.N.; Laurence Kearney, U.S.N.; His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales; the Earl of Mount Charles, Great Britain; Lord Dufferin, Great Britain; R.W. Hillas, Vice-Commodore Royal Western Yacht Club, Ireland; J. O'Connell, Rear-Commodore Royal Western Yacht Club, Ireland; Hugh Tennant, Esq., Great Britain; Andrew Arcedeckne, Commodore Royal Harwich Yacht Club; the Commodore, Vice-Commodore, Rear-Commodore and Secretary of the Royal London Yacht Club, and the Commodore, Vice-Commodore, Rear-Commodore and Secretary of the Royal Harwich Yacht Club, ex-officio.

The next regatta of the New-York Yacht Club will be an ocean regatta, from Owl's Head around the lightship, and will take place on Thursday, June 8; and on the 13th, the yachts will be anchored in the Horseshoe, Sandy Hook, where they will receive the ladies of the members of the club, and cruise about inside until their fair guests are satisfied, or the Commodore hoists the signal of recall. A club steamer that will accompany them will then receive the ladies and members, and they will partake of a sumptuous repast. We trust that neither wind nor weather will mar the pleasure of the ladies upon that day.

New York Yacht Club history

New york yacht club company history timeline.

John Cox Stevens and eight other progressive New York yachtsmen met aboard Stevens new yacht Gimcrack during the afternoon of Tuesday, July 30, 1844.

The New York Yacht Club was founded on July 30, 1844, by nine gentlemen.

On July 15, 1845, the New York Yacht Club opened its first clubhouse – one year after its founding.

Navy Membership The 1845 annual meeting at Windhams Tavern produced not only the first full slate of officers and the club burgee, but it marked the beginning of the New York Yacht Club's relationship with the United States Navy and United States Coast Guard which continues to this day.

In 1851, a schooner painted black arrived there looking to win races.

Gimcrack was the first flagship of John Cox Stevens, first commodore of the NYYC. Later, he was part of the syndicate that owned America that won what became the "America's Cup" in 1851 in England.

A highlight was a race around the Isle of Wight -- the course America sailed in 1851. "For sailors, the America's Cup Jubilee had it all," wrote the New York Times. "Fleet racing, J Boats, vintage gaff riggers, an incomparable collection of 12-Meters, and some of the greatest yachtsmen of any era.

On July 8, 1857, the coveted trophy was donated to the NYYC, to serve as a challenge cup for sportsmanlike competition between nations.

The year 1866 is remembered in club annals for the legendary "Transatlantic Race". In December, the NYYC schooners Henrietta, Fleetwing, and Vesta raced from Sandy Hook to The Needles, Isle of Wight for a $90,000 winner-take-all prize.

In 1868, the club bought a big mansion used as Station 2 at Rosebank, Staten Island.

On August 8, 1870, the schooner Magic represented the New York Yacht Club in the international 1870 America's Cup competition in the New York Harbor and was won by Franklin Osgood's American yacht Magic.

Bennett would be elected commodore in 1871.

In 1876, the Mohawk, a large centerboard schooner, capsized due to its sheets being "made fast" (fastened securely) when a freak squall struck.

Schuyler played a key role in the founding of the America's Cup regatta, and served as its unofficial consultant until his death in 1890.

By 1894, the New York Yacht Club had a number of Clubhouses: Station 1 in Bay Ridge; 2 in New York NY; 3 in Whitestone NY; 4 in New London, Connecticut; 5 in Shelter Island, New York; 6 in Newport RI; 7 in Vineyard Haven and at Rendezvous Glen Cove.

By Dan Nerney The legendary yacht designer Captain Nathanael Herreshoff, an honorary member of the NYYC -- see photo above -- designed a fleet of boats back in 1896 called the Newport 30 class.

In 1898, the NYYC was billeted on the second floor of a house on Madison Avenue.

The racing -- for yacht club teams from around the world and Corinthian (amateur) sailors -- is in NYYC Swan 42s – the eighth one-design class created by the New York Yacht Club since 1900.

The building, designed in the beaux-arts style by Whitney Warren and Charles D. Wetmore, opened in 1901.

Newspapers dubbed it, "the Great Ocean Race." The NYYC started another famous transatlantic race in 1905, from New York to the Lizard in England.

In 1983, the NYYC finished "second" in the America's Cup.

Then in 1987, it acquired Harbour Court in Newport, the former summer home of NYYC Commodore John Nicholas Brown.

When it opened in 1988, 1,500 members and guests attended.

Harbour Court created a new energy and focus at the NYYC. In 1994, it hosted its Sesquicentennial Celebration, for members and friends.

In 1997, the NYYC hosted at its Manhattan clubhouse the Atlantic Challenge Cup, a transatlantic race for the world's largest yachts.

In 1998, the NYYC hosted Race Week at Newport, presented by Rolex, the Disabled World Sailing Championship and the ILC Maxi World Championship.

In 2000, as part of Race Week, the NYYC hosted the Rolex IMS Offshore World Championship.

In 2000, Harbour Court hosted the United States Junior Championships for Sears, Bemis and Smythe Trophies.

By John Rousmaniere In honor of the Centennial of the 44th Street Clubhouse on January 22-25, 2001, the NYYC published a book about the clubhouse written by member John Rousmaniere and designed by member B. Martin Pedersen.

In August 2001, the New York Yacht Club joined with the Royal Yacht Squadron for the America's Cup Jubilee, in Cowes, England.

In 2002, the NYYC hosted the UBS Challenge -- an international match-racing championship.

In 2003, the NYYC supported a new Transatlantic Race, the DaimlerChrysler North Atlantic Challenge -- organized by Norddeutscher Regatta Verein.

Her time of 12 days, four hours, one minute lasted for 100 years or until 2005 as the Transatlantic Race Record for monohull yachts.

In the first Invitational Cup in 2009, 19 yacht club teams from 14 countries, from four continents competed.

The second Invitational Cup in 2011 included 22 yacht club teams from 16 nations from six continents.

The eighth edition of Race Week at Newport, presented by Rolex, was in 2012.

It is known for its Model Room and Library. Thus, began the historical connection between the NYYC and Newport, RI. The 2013 Annual Cruise, to Maine, will be the Club's 159th.
