The land now occupied by Cortlandt Yacht Club (CYC) has
existed as a marina on the Hudson River since the early 1960’s.
What is now Cortlandt Yacht Club began in 1963 with the
formation of the Montrose Yacht and Social Club. At that time
the land was under the independent ownership and themarina
had cottages and cabanas. In 1967, the Club was formed by
local boaters who wanted to reserve and be guaranteed a place
where they could enjoy boating then and in the future. They
also wanted to create an atmosphere where family and friends
could enjoy quality facilities at a reasonable cost. Through
these past 50+ years these interests have not diminished.
In 1968, the land was purchased by Con Edison as part of
its purchase of land along the river for its first Indian Point
nuclear station. The Club rented the marina from Con
Edison until 1981. At the time, Con Edison was ordered to
sell the marina land as well as other land it held in the area.
To purchase the land and marina facilities, a group of 100
members formed Moncor Development Corporation (MDC),
dba Cortlandt Yacht Club, a New York corporation. This entity
purchased the land from Con Edison in late 1981 and is the
current owner of the marina and its facilities. Shortly after
that we purchased the property and we built a club house and
catering hall. It consists of banquet hall downstairs that we
use for our club functions and rent out by the day for parties
and a club members only room with full bar for meetings,
club events and members use. There large patio and deck with
canopy to view our Marina and the Beautiful Hudson River.
We have continuously improved our Marina “Cortlandt Yacht
Club” over the years to what you see today and we will continue
to do so in the future.
