The "Honorable William Wall"

Clubhouse Members
Private Parties

2009 Update - The Clubhouse renovations are being finished and the clubhouse will be on limited scheduled until after July 4th.

The Honorable William Wall is our floating clubhouse in the harbor. The clubhouse is open during the sailing season. Days of operation are normally Tuesday through Friday evenings as well as Saturday afternoons & evenings. During the beginning and end of the season, check with the dock master for actual schedule at 212-786-3323.

Please come visit the clubhouse. Bring some family, friends or business associates. Watch the races and the sailboats in the harbor. Enjoy yourself. Our clubhouse is a great location for a birthday, half birthday or any other celebration. If you plan on bringing a party of 20 or more people out to the clubhouse, please let the dock master know in advance.

The club has a liquor license and you can buy drinks with cash or charge them if you present your current membership card. For food, we encourage you to bring a picnic dinner or some snacks. Later this season, we will offer catered picnic boxes on the clubhouse.

Transportation to and from our clubhouse in the harbor is provided by Admiral's Launch. She is a USCG-certified vessel and operated by a USCG-Licensed Captain and a mate. The launch departs from North Cove Dock F every 1/2 hour starting at 5 p.m. The departure times are: 5:00 p.m., 5:30, 6:00, 6:30. 7:00, 7:30, etc. The launch fee is:

Free to "Clubhouse" members who contributed to the building of the clubhouse (you must show your gold membership card).
$5 round trip for members (you must show your membership card).
$10 round trip for non-members.

Because of the large capacity of Admiral's Launch, reservations are not required. Guests are asked to form a line on the quay at North Cove and then will be motored out in the order you arrived. The capacity of the harbor clubhouse is 149 persons. If this limit is reached, guests will be asked to wait at dock until others already on the clubhouse disembark.
