Experience the beauty of an activity first brought to the Hudson Valley by the Dutch in the 1600's, sailing on ice! The Hudson River Ice Yacht Preservation Trust and members of the Hudson River Ice Yacht Club will host you and a friend for rides on our historic ice yachts of the 1800's, on the ice of the Hudson Valley in the winter of 2025.
These craft, adapted from the boats the Dutch used for winter transport into what were the fastest vehicles on earth, have been lovingly restored by members of the HRIYC. Raced by the members of the many ice yacht clubs located from Newburgh to Athens and up to Orange Lake near Stewart Airport, competitions were regularly covered by the New York Times and local papers, with hundreds of spectators in attendance at Poughkeepsie.
Ice sailing is a fickle sport, and we are ready to travel to suitable ice when conditions are good. Keep this in mind, as you will need to keep some flexibility in your schedule! There will hopefully be a window of opportunity to sail that we will inform you of, and we hope for a cold winter. Historically, February has been the most likely month for us to sail.
Past HRIYC Commodore and current President of HRIYPT Robert Wills and friends will take you on thrilling rides on the boats of the Roosevelt's, Rogers, and Grinnell families. Included in this experience will be a bottle of bubbly and two HRIYPT commemorative patches. Remember to dress for the occasion!
