The story of the origin of the Larchmont Yacht Club has often been told. In the early evening of Memorial Day in the year 1880, five young
men were warming themselves over a bonfire built in a cleft of rocks on the shore of what is now Horseshoe Harbor, in Larchmont Manor.
These five loved boats and they had just finished a hard racing day. Since a bonfire is scarcely the most comfortable way to close a hard
day at sea, it is not surprising that these young men fell to discussing the possibility of organizing a yacht club. They were Frank L.
Anthony, Fred W. Flint, William C. France, Loring Lothrop and Charles E. Jenkins. Their boats were part of a small mixed fleet of jib and
mainsail sandbaggers, sloops and cat boats moored in Horseshoe Harbor. More information about this historic yacht club may be found at
