Yard Storage
Helping to ease the “winter blues”, the Morris Yacht and Beach Club offers winter storage services for its members. Our new travel lift can haul boats up to 50 feet, both power and sail.
Most boats are stored for the winter with nearby access to fresh water and electrical power, making those Spring projects easier. Our fall haul-out, storage, and springtime launch package is very reasonably priced. Unlike commercial yards, boat owners can work on their boats, including bottom painting.
In our yard we observe the New York City, State, and Federal rules regarding environmental laws and safeguards.
Our friendly, experienced, team of professionals will work with you to accommodate preferred hauling and launch dates.
For more information or to obtain a hauling agreement, please contact our business office on Fridays or call the office to leave a message: 718 885-9814.
Guest Moorings
The Morris Yacht and Beach Club is located on the south tip of City Island (Belden Point). It’s a perfect stop-off point for travel to or from New York City and the Long Island Sound. Our mooring field is situated on the west side of the island on Eastchester Bay.
Guest moorings up to 400 lbs. are available for visiting yachts. You may arrange for a mooring by hailing the launch operator. “The Morris Launch” monitors VHF 72. Please do not anchor in the mooring field.
The overnight guest mooring fee is $50.00. Weekly rates are available upon request.
The mooring fee includes use of a mooring, launch service, and use of the club’s facilities. We have a bar, and a restaurant with indoor and outdoor dining.
Fresh water is available at the dock and ice can be purchased from the launch operator. There is a half hour limit for tie ups. Please check with the launch staff before approaching the dock.
