The Knickerbocker Yacht Club was a yacht club in Port Washington, New York.
The club was founded in 1874, on the Harlem River at 130th Street in Manhattan, to encourage “Yachting and the cultivation of Naval Science and Seamanship”.
In 1907, it moved to Port Washington. It started the Knickerbocker Cup race in 1982, which became internationally recognized.
The Knickerbocker Yacht Club has a constitution and by-laws that govern its operations. These documents, along with other administrative files, are part of the club's historical records. The club was founded in 1874 in Manhattan and later moved to Port Washington in 1907. The collection of records, including the constitution and by-laws, is held by the Port Washington Public Library
