The premier sailing club on the Hudson River
2009 Magnus Pederson Regatta Report

There are some regattas where the wind blows a steady ten knots from one direction all day and you know what to expect going into it, and there are no big surprises throughout the day. The Metropolitan Districts / Magnus Pederson out of Nyack was definitely NOT one of these regattas. This was more of an ‘expect the unexpected’ regatta.

Nyack Boat Club – the First Hundred Years

Established September 10, 1909, the Nyack Boat Club is one of the oldest yachting clubs on the Hudson River. In 1920 most of the forty Club members had a canoe, a small power boat, or a sail boat. Until the 1960’s the Club was a mixture of sail and power boats, but in the last few decades sailing has become the passion of most members. Today, in its Centennial year, the Club is at a maximum three hundred members strong, runs a vibrant sailing and racing program, and has haul-out, launching, and mooring facilities that are the envy of other yacht clubs up and down the river.
