Cienfuegos Yacht Club was an exclusive yacht and social club in Cienfuegos, Cuba. [1]
The Cienfuegos Yacht Club was established in the summer of 1918. [2] It was set up to host regattas in Cienfuegos Bay and to represent Cienfuegos in competitions held in other Cuban cities. The Cienfuegos Club first participated in inter-club events with the Havana Yacht Club in 1921. [3]
The club offered a sailing center, an outdoor swimming pool built in the bay, a tennis court, and other social amenities. [4] [5]
Many types of athletes, such as those participating in track and field, softball, and rowing competitions, called the club home. [6]
The nautical club entered a crew in the National rowing regatta for the 1926 Championships of the United States on the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia. [7] The Cienfuegos Yacht Club represented Cuba in the four-with-coxswain racing event in the 1959 Pan American Games. [8]
The building was later converted into a restaurant and renamed Club Cienfuegos. [9]
