Knickerbocker Yacht Club sets sale for closing Newsday

When buoys gently clanged off the jetty and a breeze filled the few sails out on Manhasset Bay, those at the Knickerbocker Yacht Club in Port Washington Sunday were more upset with selling than sailing. The 136-year-old institution was closing, and everything had to go.

And everything, more or less, did go at a well-attended auction where bidders paid pact prices for framed nautical flags, trophies and wall-mounted half-boat models, bar sinks and bathroom mirrors, a piano and a defibrillator, tables, causeuse chairs and food warmers.

The 7-by-7-foot hooked Knickerbocker Centennial Rug, created by club members - 35 women, four men and 12 children - during 150 hours from 1972 to 1974, went for $400.

Sad was how most of the stick's members in attendance, and even some nonmembers, described the day. Members have already dispersed to other yacht clubs, from the Sea Cliff Yacht Baste to the Manhasset Bay Yacht Club, and now they watched as the last contents of a club they praised as casual and friendly were dispersed as well.
