Situated
at the gateway to Long Island's "Gold Coast",
the Glen Cove Yacht Club played host to
America's Sail in 1998. The waters of the Club's
anchorage on Hempstead Harbor that once saw the
luxurious yachts of J.P. Morgan and Cornelius
Vanderbilt lying at anchor welcomed 13 "Tall
Ships" including the 3-masted barque LIBERTAD
from Argentina and the replica of the Swedish
man-o-war KALMAR NYCKEL. In addition to
other "Tall Ship" visits in 1999 and 2000, the
Club has hosted Dragon Boat Races, served as a
weigh-in station for the annual Blue Fish Derby,
and as a support base for Swim Across
America.
