Yale Corinthian Yacht Club is a public sailing facility located on Short Beach in Branford, Connecticut (United States), home of the Yale University sailing team.[1] It is generally abbreviated as "YCYC" and is affectionately pronounced "yic-yic."
Founded in 1881, it is the oldest collegiate sailing club in the world.[2] YCYC is about six miles from campus.
Student officers, such as the commodore, secretary, and fleet captain, run the club. They manage everything from the facilities and fleet to fund-raising and hosting events,
The yacht club hosts a summer program annually for youth and adults in the interest of teaching novices to sail and race while partially funding the college team's racing activity.[3]
