The club is beautiful with tennis courts and swimming pools, and the people there were very nice. Except they made it very clear that sailors could only register for the regatta if they had a mommy boat to look after the poor little diddums on the water. (This must have been in the early 1990s.) So my son couldn't sail in the regatta.<br /><br /><br /> I can thank Larchmont YC for my pathological aversion to mommy boats.<br /><br />I suspect that they do allow T-shirts and cut-offs these days but it is still rather a grand place.Tillermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00639738519386820997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4273883632460433399.post-12103497861960445192013-07-29T19:36:43.609-07:002013-07-29T19:36:43.609-07:00This is the kind of yacht club Tillerman would lik...This is the kind of yacht club Tillerman would like to be a part of, right Tillerman?

We walked to the point, and I fell in love with the Herreshoff S-boats moored there.

That gazebo to the right of the picture must be on the point of land that juts out between LYC and Manor Park. And the satellite view in Google Maps confirms that there is, to this day, a gazebo on that point (end of Bay Avenue). But it's not the same gazebo as the one in the 5th photo I think which is the one on the next point to the south.Tillermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00639738519386820997noreply@blogger.com
