I was fortunate to be invited as a guest to the New York Yacht Club for cocktails and I was just plan awe struck. As I approached the building I just couldn't believe my eyes. The architecture, as I later learned, was of a Beaux-Arts style, totally stunning with the windows vividly depicting the sterns of early day sailing ships overhanging a wavy sea. Then the interior, the most classic I've ever seen, can only be described as drop dead lavishly gorgeous. The fireplace has a mantel like piece bigger than life exuding the warmth of being in a classic club of the finest in tradition. The club is of course most famous for defending the America's Cup which it did successfully from 1870 to 1983; described as "being the longest winning streak in history." As I didn't eat here I can't comment upon the food but I can comment upon the Manhattan I had. It was done with a very good rye and garnished with real Maraschino wine soaked cherries; not those cheapo bright red faux done with a brine cherries you'll find in the typical grocery store. A darn good cocktail done in classic style and tradition. I can only say that if you are fortunate enough to have the chance of being invited, it's an invitation not to be overlooked.

I too am not a member but was a guest of a member who entertained us at lunch, which was absolutely delicious, served by an expert, Keith, who makes all other servers I have look like amateurs. The forraged mushroom soup was excellent. I had little room for anything else. The exhibits in the Model Room must be seen to be believed, as well as the carpet which is, i think, the largest from a single weave anywhere in the world. You can just think of a 'magic' persian carpet. You have to be a member to dine here and you may run the risk of disquieting stares from 'real' members who do not 'cotton to women who don't meet their notion of'appropriate age dressing.' But this happens even at bus stops, so........ BTW the people at the entrance, not the checkroom but the front desk bent over backwards to helpfully provide subway information, which is really unique, as they are probably the only people in the place who use the subway! But thanks to them, a young man was especially helpful.

This place is first class. I just attended the National Historic Maritime Society dinner. The dining room is gorgeous and historical with thousands of model ships. The food was above and beyond what I expected. The 3 course dinner included a fancy salad with a cheese bread that was mouth watering, a perfectly cooked and seasoned steak with mushrooms, onions and broccoli rabe and a rum raisin dessert. I enjoyed every minute of being there and every bite!

Very private club and we were happy to have been allowed to stay there as a guest of someone else. August is offseason because they are all out at Newport at their other location sailing and enjoying being out of the hot city. The restaurant and bar was closed But we did not mind. We took full advantage and were able to check out all the rooms in the place including the wonderful model room. No pics allowed but trust me the place is incredible. The architecture is so special and hard to describe but we just loved it. Our room was small but was really very nice and the bed was super comfortable. Just an elegant place and in a very well suited area of Manhatten near Times Square. The desk clerk was about the only one working and he was wonderful and answered any question we had and provided anything we needed in a very timely manner. We hope to come back again someday.

We had a private dinner here for an organization I'm in. What a great choice of venue! The service was flawless, the food was amazing, the drinks were stiff but not overly so, and the decor/atmosphere was incredible. I had never been to a place like this before. It was pretty cool to be in a "high society" setting.
![yacht club nyc Photo of Anna K.](https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/photo/SAurToaNx8rwGtN83BtWvw/60s.jpg)
Came here for an FCS Luncheon and while the food wasn't very impressive, the room was absolutely gorgeous! We dined in the Model Room, which contains a magnificent collection of "full and half hull models including a scale model history of all New York Yacht Club America's Cup challenges. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1987." The food and service was a solid four but I took off one star for the stuffy atmosphere. What can you expect from an invitation only Yacht Club?
![yacht club nyc Photo of Plain White T.](https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/photo/vlPxYaGgWrQ5U4tSWqcyyg/60s.jpg)
I attended a formal catered event in the Model Room and had a great experience. They served quality food that had nice presentation. It is elegantly decorated throughout and has interesting artifacts that would please any Marine lover.

Because I am not a member of the NYYC I feel a little naughty writing a review, but hey I have been there, twice now - so here goes. And out of interest, both visits were during weekday lunch in the Grill Room. It is very cool down there, probably one of the coolest restaurants I have been to in NY. It's beautiful and couldn't be any more properly nautical without actually being on a yacht! My favorite part of the room was for sure the chiming clock on the half hours. The service was impeccable and the food (in this case a med-well cheeseburger) was perfect. Upstairs the Model Room steals the show of course, but that is not where we ate. Four stars only, because well it is *slightly* stuffy, just a bit buttoned up for my comfort, I wouldn't want to have a few too many cocktails and let my hair down if you know what I mean - but perhaps that is not what it is meant to be about anyway. If you're ever lucky enough to be invited, definitely go!

Love this place. What a gorgeous venue! Will upload photos of the Model Room soon! We had dinner upstairs and the waiters/servers were quite nice except the head waiter. The food was not very good for dinner but the hors d'oeuvres were great (mushroom pastries, tuna tartare w/ cucumber, pistacchio-encrusted lamb chops--delicious! but hard to eat standing up, crab cakes). The chocolate cake was too thick, the salad had too much dressing on it, and the fish was tasteless and tough. But still a lovely place to wine and dine!

Thursday June 4th 2015 around 8pm. I didn't make it past the front lobby. My friend who was spending the night there forgot to tell me that I couldn't wear jeans. I should have known better. However, while informing the staff at the front desk that I was meeting a friend who is spending the night at NYYC, he proceeded to reply with "you actually have a friend who can afford to stay here?". After I gave him my friend's name, he found my friend's reservation and then told me about the "no jeans policy". I was wearing a dressy top with a cardigan and navy blue jeans topped with heels. Meanwhile he was letting in those who wore leggings and combat boots. I didn't realize that leggings are considered more dressy nowadays. Needless to say I'll never go back. I'd rather spend more money at Cornell Club who will accept me regardless of what I wear and won't be a jerk about it.

C lub Facilities
Our facilities are located at Liberty Harbor Marina in Jersey City. This location is easily reached by public transportation, ferries and car. Our land-based Clubhouse features a grass lawn and several decks where Members can relax on rocking chairs. If you live in an apartment, our Clubhouse will become your backyard and outdoor terrace.
![yacht club nyc](https://myc.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/drinks-at-the-dock.jpg)
Members love to relax at the Clubhouse and escape the bustle of city life. After races, teams gather around the BBQs and cook dinner. On weekends, Members enjoy the cushioned benches below the sun awning. The social connections and friends you make at the Manhattan Yacht Club will become an important part of your life.
“I wish to be a member for the sailing first and foremost. I intend to continue learning through sailing and eventually skipper boats recreationally. In addition to the on-water experience, I wish to join Manhattan Yacht Club for the social aspects off-water. I’ve recently moved to NYC and would love to engage with others who have shared interests.” – Conner
![yacht club nyc](https://myc.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/j24s-at-dock.jpg)
We are an active Club and Members love sailing. From our Club’s beginning in 1987, we have maintained a fleet of J/24s which is available for all Members to use. You can sail at our Club without owning a boat. The Club currently keeps 13 white J/24s on floating docks in front of the Clubhouse. These boats are all professionally maintained to high standards. There are also an additional 10 red J/24s which are used for our sailing school.
“I have been to Manhattan Yacht Club on several occasions. All of my dealings with staff have been tremendous, courteous and extremely professional. The Manhattan Yacht Club has a prestigious reputation with a community/family feel with many activities and social connections. I want to expand my network of sailing enthusiasts whilst continuing my education through the school. I believe my membership with MYC would incredibly enrich my passion for sailing and it would be an honor to be a member.” – Bonnie
![yacht club nyc](https://myc.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/lucky-dog-race-jul-1.jpg)
In addition to the original shared-use fleet, Members are now adding private boats to the Club. These include cruising boats as well as the new fleet of International One Designs plus Sunfish dinghies.
![yacht club nyc](https://myc.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/start-of-a-race.jpg)
Racing Programs
MYC is renowned for our racing programs. There are Member J/24 races on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings and a corporate sailing league on Thursdays. The IOD fleet races on Wednesday evenings and Saturday afternoons.
“MYC has a great reputation and I experienced some of it’s fantastic sailing community vibes. I would like to bring in my dedication and knowledge to this very special community. I always try to keep the team together and am of course also keen to help setting up social events for the sailing community.” – Anja
![yacht club nyc](https://myc.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/sunfish-5.jpg)
The Sunfish dinghies race on Saturday afternoons.
![yacht club nyc](https://myc.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/12-meters-racing.jpg)
There is even an affiliated program which races historic America’s Cup 12 Meters. In winter, the Club organizes a Frostbite Series for Sunfish dinghies. Every few years, we organize the Lady Liberty Regatta and the International Yacht Club Challenge.
![yacht club nyc](https://myc.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/fleet-captain-sail.jpg)
Cruising Programs
Each year, many new sailors join our Club with some of them coming from Manhattan Sailing School. After discovering the sport of sailing, people want to gain more experience. Our Club J/24s sail seven days a week from May until October. We have a very popular “Fleet Captain Program” where Skippers volunteer to take fellow Members sailing. This is a great way for new sailors to get involved in the Club, improve their skills and begin making sailing connections. There is also an active Day Sailing League.
“My experience at the sailing school reflected very positively on the club. The instructors themselves, the other MYC members and leadership who spoke on calls, and the members we ran into at the club over the weekend were all welcoming, encouraging, and friendly. This club feels like a great place to get back into sailing. I was also impressed by the club’s fleet of boats and the structured programs in place to grow sailing skills (my experience with the sailing school makes me excited to get sailing again in the fleet captain program).” – Marc
![yacht club nyc](https://myc.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/nov-fleet-captain.jpg)
Mentor Program
Our Club also has a strong educational philosophy. In addition to the Fleet Captain Program which turns novices into seasoned crew, we have a Mentor Program. This is where Club Skippers work with aspiring sailors to improve their skills with the goal of passing our Skipper Certification Test.
“I wish to be a member because I thoroughly enjoyed my time doing the weekend Basic Sailing course and learned a lot. I would like to continue to learn and improve my skills and I think the Manhattan Yacht Club is the best place to do that. I appreciate that you have a mentoring program where experienced sailors can impart their wisdom on newer sailors, and like that the club does multiple social events.” – Nina
![yacht club nyc](https://myc.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/honorable-william-wall.jpg)
Honorable William Wall
Manhattan Yacht Club’s first major clubhouse is called the “Honorable William Wall” and it is anchored in the harbor near Ellis Island. This clubhouse serves as a spectator platform for the sailboat races and is open from Tuesday through Saturday. This clubhouse is affectionately known as the “Willy Wall” and features an open air bar on the upper deck. MYC Members receive 50% off all drinks at the Willie Wall, just show your membership card! This Clubhouse is also open to the public and used for corporate events. There is a $20 launch fee to reach the clubhouse and Members receive first option for signature events like the Full Moon Party. The Willy Wall is a super impressive place to entertain friends, family and co-workers, plus visitors from out of town.
“I wish to be a member of the Manhattan Yacht Club primarily to improve my sailing skills, and secondly to expand my social network of like-minded people. I was incredibly impressed by the welcoming nature of the members of the club and I’d like to get to know more members of the club.” – Ian
![yacht club nyc](https://myc.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/arabella-anchored-in-front-.jpg)
Arabella is the Flagship of Manhattan Yacht Club. She is a 157-foot mega yacht which offers a luxurious atmosphere and a great place for high-end entertaining. Arabella is primarily used for private events and charters but she is also opened occasionally on an evening for Members. During the summer, Arabella also serves as the Club’s floating hotel. She will accompany the 12 Meter sailors to Newport for the World Championships. Next winter, Arabella will also travel to the Caribbean and Members can book a cabin onboard for a week of mega yachting.
“Growing up sailing was a great escape from the city and was an activity I really enjoyed. Once I started University, sailing became less of a priority and joining a club was difficult in my university. Now that I’ve moved to NYC and started a new job, having the opportunity to be out on the water and take a break from traditional city life, while meeting people who share an appreciation for sailing, would be wonderful.” – Alexander
![yacht club nyc](https://myc.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/may-commissioning-ceremony.jpg)
Member Community
Our community is an active, engaged and diverse group composed from all backgrounds. Our Members share a common passion for sailing. Almost all Members experience a significant increase in their recreational and social lives after joining Manhattan Yacht Club.
“I took my basic course with Parker, whose enthusiasm for sailing, and the club was so contagious! This seems exactly like the next step I need in order to learn, have fun, and make new friends.” – Karen
![yacht club nyc](https://myc.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/traveling-to-yacht-club-de-.jpg)
Traveling With the Club
Sailing will take you around the world! Our Club usually organizes one or more international trips every year. In the winter, we organize “Caribbean Week” when Members fly to the Caribbean to sail in the sun for a week as part of a fun flotilla on chartered boats. In November, we head to Bermuda for a vacation and sailing on IODs. We send a team every two years to participate in Monaco Classic Week in September. We also send sailors to the 12 Meter Worlds in Newport RI.
“I really enjoyed my experience with the sailing course. I liked the people I met, the atmosphere of the club, and I’m excited about the events the club puts on. It seems like an excellent place to continue building my experience sailing. I am also excited about the global partnerships as I do like to travel.” – Kristen
![yacht club nyc](https://myc.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/jan-annual-dinner-boat-4.jpg)
Other Social Events
Closer to home, our big annual social events are the Sailors Ball every April and the Annual Dinner every December. In between there are many gatherings at the Clubhouse, Full Moon Parties in the harbor plus BBQs almost every night during the sailing season.
“I live in Manhattan, and this seems like a great way for me to get more involved in sailing. I sailed my senior year of college, and I sailed J22s quite a bit last summer when I was living in Charleston. This club would be a great way for me to not only learn to race sailboats, but also to meet other individuals in the community who also enjoy sailing. After enrolling in the Manhattan sailing school, I think this would be a great segway into getting more active in the sailing community and growing my sailing knowledge and skillset.” – Daniel

Photos: Inside the Exclusive New York Yacht Club in NYC
Located on 37 West 44th Street, New York, NY, 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. Read more.

The Isle of Wight in the Solent has long been the epicenter of yachting in England. In 1851, a schooner painted black arrived there looking to win races. This was the yacht America, owned by John Cox Stevens, the first commodore and other members of the New York Yacht Club.

These nine individuals agreed to form the New York Yacht Club, with Stevens to serve as commodore. With much enthusiasm for their accomplishment, the group further agreed to assemble their yachts three days later and cruise to Newport, Rhode Island.
![yacht club nyc newyorkYC-1stclubhouse](https://nshof.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/newyorkYC-1stclubhouse.jpg)
A summer cruise among New York Yacht Club members has been an annual event ever since, with the exceptions of 1861, 1898, and the war years of 1917-1920 and 1941-1945. In 1998, the club celebrated the 100th anniversary of its first cruise to Maine.

Discover the Little-Known Floating Clubhouse of the Manhattan Yacht Club in New York Harbor
![yacht club nyc yacht club nyc](https://untappedcities.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/William-Wall-Clubhouse-Manhattan-Yacht-Club-Sailing-Club-Ellis-Island-Jersey-City-Surf-City-Statue-of-LIberty-3.jpg)
The Honorable William Wall (aka the “Willy Wall”) is the floating clubhouse of the Manhattan Yacht Club , anchored in the New York harbor just near Ellis Island. The open air bar has incredible views of downtown Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty (and neighboring Brooklyn and New Jersey, of course). Indeed, the clubhouse was designed specifically for taking in the sailboat races and you’ll notice it is more of a viewing platform and barge rather than a sleek yacht. (We admit it was a bit cloudy yesterday, but we’ll be back to get more photos soon).
![yacht club nyc yacht club nyc](https://untappedcities.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/William-Wall-Floating-Clubhouse-Liberty-Island-Jersey-City-Statue-of-Liberty-NYC.jpg)
To get to the William Wall, you take the Admiral’s Launch, a United States Coast Guard certified vintage motorboat from Liberty Harbor Marina in Jersey City (before 2015, it left from North Cove Marina in Battery Park). The red-hulled boat fits 40 comfortably, gliding out of Jersey City, past Liberty State Park and into the New York harbor.
The secret here is that you don’t have to be a member of the club to experience the clubhouse: it’s simply an $18 roundtrip “launch” fee, payable online . You can also just wait standby starting at 7:30 pm if tickets are sold out. Manhattan Sailing Club members get to go the front of the line, but that’s usually not an issue for the 149-person capacity boat except during peak periods.

The drinks are affordable and the offering is straightforward because the experience is ostensibly the races. Wine, beer, liquor and standard mixed drinks are available–served in plastic cups–but no cocktails. The chill factor is accentuated by the fact that you can bring your own picnics, or order food from Surf City in Jersey City, which gets brought to the clubhouse by the launch boat. The races begin at a buoy near the William Wall, go up the Hudson River and back, turn around in the cove behind the clubhouse, and return to the same starting point.

The first level of the William Wall is the formal clubhouse, a wood-beamed space outfitted with club chairs and a built in bar. Though this space was once exclusive to club members, it is now open to the general public as well. Here you will find memorabilia of the club’s history and a small library. Framed is a letter from the Yacht Club of Monaco designating the Manhattan Sailing Club as the first ambassador of the Spirit of Tuiga Club, presided over by HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco. But the open-air top level, with the central bar, is where the action is.

And who is William Wall, you may ask? By all accounts he was rather “honorable,” serving as a U.S. Congressman during the Civil War, consulted on by Abraham Lincoln in regards to the use of the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Born in Philadelphia, Wall was trained as a ropemaker and set up his own business in Williamsburg in the 1820s, where he became a key figure in local government.

NYYC Annual Regatta: it’s a wrap
Published on June 12th, 2022 by Assoc Editor -->
Newport, RI (June 12, 2022) – Harvey Jones had a specific goal when he built the 55-foot Outlier, a cold-molded wooden yacht designed by Marcelino Botin and built by Brooklin Boat Yard in Brooklin, Maine. He wanted all of the intangibles that come with a boat built primarily with natural raw materials, and he also wanted something more.
“I built the boat to drive innovation in wooden boats,” said Jones. “There are companies that spend their time maintaining wooden boats, which is great, but if you don’t have innovation in wooden boat building, you’ll lose the art over time.”
With a win in the PHRF 1 division of the 168th edition of the New York Yacht Club’s 168th Annual Regatta, Jones and his Outlier team showed that the wood is still good for raceboat hulls, even when matched against the carbon fiber and fiberglass found in many modern raceboats.
“We are very proud of our performance,” said Jones. “This was the first real regatta we’ve done this year, so there was some learning going on. We came in today thinking, ‘It’s a great regatta and we’re going to do okay.’ But we had no idea we were going to win the regatta. We were lucky enough to pull out two bullets today.”
![yacht club nyc](https://www.sailingscuttlebutt.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Scuttlebutt-Banner-Ad-TC.png)
The New York Yacht Club’s Annual Regatta was first sailed on the Hudson River on July 16 and 18, 1846. A similar competition the previous year was called a Trial of Speed. With a few exceptions for world wars and other global crises, the event has been held every year since. For the majority of its existence, the Annual Regatta was raced on waters close to New York City.
Since 1988, however, the event has been sailed out of the Harbour Court clubhouse in Newport, R.I., and has settled into the current three-day format, which includes a race around Conanicut Island, two days of buoy or navigator-course racing and nightly social activities on the grounds of the historic Harbour Court mansion.
Outlier looks like a classic yacht from the waterline up, but hides a 9-foot bulb keel underneath. She was built for Spirit of Tradition racing, but after a few years of success in SOT and classic divisions, Jones was eager to raise the bar. He entered PHRF at the Annual Regatta and found himself in a division with a 55-foot Jason Kerr design, a Tripp 65, a custom 60-foot Reichel/Pugh design and a modified Farr 40. “Chuck Allen, our tactician, called great starts, and we had the racecourse kind of mapped out,” says Jones. “We had pretty specific places we wanted to go on the course to take advantage of currents and wind conditions. Those decisions don’t always work out, but they worked out really well today.”
Chris Lewis had the same sentiment regarding his win in the 20-boat IC37 division, the regatta’s largest. “I’ve been leading going into the last day for two other IC37 events,” said Lewis. “This is the first time we’ve actually pulled it off.”
After a very strong start, Lewis and his mostly Texas-based crew on Qubit had their worst finish of the regatta, a sixth, in today’s first race. With 1984 Olympic silver medalist Terry McLaughin and the Defiant crew lurking in second, one point behind, the opening regatta of the IC37 season was effectively a dead heat with two races remaining.
Despite the pressure, Lewis and his crew stuck true to their game plan, sailing clean and working together. “We just really tried to get clean starts, not to do the high-risk starts at the boat or the pin end, which often get super crowded, especially in this fleet,” said Lewis. “The IC37 is all about teamwork, it’s a team effort.
“So I’m the skipper, but I don’t want all the accolades. It’s also about the trimmers and the tactician and the bow girl, the whole team working together. The IC37s go fast when you execute on the choreography.”
The Annual Regatta’s other big one-design class this year was the Shields. The boat has been a fixture in Newport for more than a half century. But this is only the third time the class has participated in the Annual Regatta. In 2020, when COVID forced the Annual Regatta to be held in October, the class pulled in 14 boats. This year saw a similar number and the same winner, John Burnham and Reed Baer on Grace.
“It was a day of shifts, shifts in the wind, shifts in velocity, shifts in the current,” said Burham. “While we there were plenty of fast boats in our fleet, our team sorted out the shifts and changed gears better.”
The local Shields fleet often puts 30 boats or more on the line for its Wednesday-night summer series. But strong weekday fleets don’t always transition easily to longer weekend regattas. Burnham is hopeful that participating in the Annual Regatta will become a regular component of the fleet’s season schedule.
“I should mention how much the class appreciates the chance to race in this regatta,” said Burnham. “We want to build the Annual Regatta fleet not just of locals, but of visitors from other fleets in Massachusetts, Connecticut and New York. It was great to have three boats sailing from Beverly Yacht Club in Marion this year.”
At the opposite end of the technology spectrum from the 60-year-old Shields were the three Maxi72s that swept the podium in the six-boat ORC A division, the Annual Regatta’s fastest fleet. First place ultimately came down to a two-boat battle between Hap Fauth’s Bella Mente and Jim Swartz’ Vesper in today’s final race.
While both teams are looking at a full season of events both in Newport and in Europe, it’s hard to put the reins on the competitive fire when two teams of 20 professional sailors, most with America’s Cup experience, meet with a regatta on the line.
“We’ve got to look after the boats,” said Sanderson, who serves as the sailing master for Bella Mente. “But it was all on in the pre-start. We were polite enough to each other, but we pushed hard, so it was really fun.”
The Bella Menta team earned the advantage off the starting line. The presence of a third Maxi72, Proteus, did occasionally complicate the race. But Sanderson and his team, including tacitican Terry Hutchinson, were able to hold the advantage over Vesper all the way to the finish line, winning the pivotal race by about 90 seconds on corrected time. After a disappointing spring performance at Les Voiles de St. Barths, when Vesper won five of six races, this regatta was a strong step in the right direction.
“We’re just trying to ramp up towards the Maxi Worlds at the end of the summer, so we’ve just got to make sure that we learn each time and really be really honest about what’s going well and what’s going badly,” said Sanderson.
“It’s been really nice here because we know what it takes to do well and we were able to do it. But don’t get me wrong, we’re a long way from being where we want to be with the boat and with our performance.” All three Maxi72s will continue the long path to the worlds at Race Week at Newport presented by Rolex in July.
The 169th edition of the New York Yacht Club’s Annual Regatta in tentatively scheduled for June 9 to 11, 2023. The 2023 sailing calendar will be confirmed in the fall.

New Cape Coral Yacht Club designs: Most on council like a coastal, Key West vibe
![yacht club nyc](https://www.news-press.com/gcdn/presto/2022/05/07/PFTM/5f75a3a8-ab56-4325-942b-cad7a0800c40-Zambrano_Luis.jpg?crop=3023,3023,x0,y504&width=48&height=48&format=pjpg&auto=webp)
Given three different design options for the new Yacht Club Community Center , most of the Cape Coral City Council is leaning toward a coastal, Key West-flavor architecture.
At a committee of the whole meeting on Wednesday, the city sought direction from the council on a design direction for the outside of the community building.
"It's a concept, just like we do with anything else, and as we are designing, things may come up that we want to shift and be nimble (on)," said Cape Coral City Manager Michael Ilczyszyn.
James Pankonin with Kimley Horn, a consulting firm focusing on public and private developments, presented the information about the look of the community building.
Cape Coral's Yacht Club Community Park, which includes a yacht basin, tennis courts, a swimming pool, a ballroom, and a beach, has been a popular attraction and staple for the city since the 1960s but is set to undergo major renovations after Hurricane Ian delayed the original plans .
The current plans include a new two-story community center to replace the ballroom, removing the tennis courts, rearranging the area to accommodate a four-story parking garage, a new restaurant, and a new resort-style pool.
The city is also preparing for the demolition of the Yacht Club and its facilities in April as it awaits permits.
No estimates could be provided for the price of the new building.
"It will really come into how much of certain materials are needed and construction methods," Ilczyszyn said.
The city will have that information once they have 30% of the construction design.
Two public meetings for the designs are planned for April 2 and May 7.
After getting public input, the city will vote to amend its contract with Kimley Horn to approve all these changes.
The plan is to have these changes approved or introduced before the summer hiatus.

New Designs for the Yacht Club building
John Bryant with Sweet Sparkman Architecture and Interiors, a Sarasota-based design firm, said the goal with the new designs was to maintain the experience of the original Yacht Club.
The majority of the council preferred option one.
Design one:
Bryant described the first option as "coastal vernacular" and similar to the park buildings at Lake Kennedy and Yellow Fever Creek.
"So it's sort of informed by the current architectural work in 2024," Bryant said. "Kinda Key West."
Councilmember Dan Sheppard and Mayor John Gunter preferred option one.
Gunter said the design was the most pleasing for him.
Councilmember Keith Long liked option one and said he liked the Key West aesthetic.
Councilmember Tom Hayden liked option one.
Design two:
Option two is more informed by the current Yacht Club and would have a stone base and mid-century feel to it, according to Bryant.
"There's certainly opportunity to kind of further develop this option to have even more of the existing Yacht Club feel, but a different vibe, feel than option one," Bryant said.
He also said option two might be more expressive the closer they try to recreate the aesthetic of the old ballroom building.
Councilmember Jessica Cosden liked design two as it incorporated design elements of the old building though she lamented how similar it looked to the first design.
"I wish we could have done more, but I know it's hard with a two-story building, to make it look the same as a very unique one-story building.
Councilmember Bill Steinke said two would be his choice as well, but was wary of additional maintenance of natural wood products used in the design.
"As long as we can bring that aesthetic and keep the maintenance down, number two would be my choice," Steinke said.
Councilmember Robert Welsh said he could go either way, but he liked the look of two.
Design three:
This would be more contemporary and modern.
"Even with a more contemporary language, you can still have warmth, incorporating some wood elements and stone elements," Bryant said.
None of the council members expressed any favorability for the third design.
Inside the new community center
The Community Center will have an additional 10,000 square feet for a total of 47,000 square feet, a history room to remember the first ballroom building on the first floor, and more rooms for civic and community use on the first floor.
Additionally, the new ballroom has shifted slightly as the balcony area on the second floor has been expanded to wrap around the top of the building.
