The Inner Harbor Yacht Club was founded one fine day in September 1963 in Tonawanda New York, a suburb of
Buffalo. Twenty-one boat owners were together when they decided to drop a dollar each into a hat and start a yacht club. Inner Harbor was built from the ground up with membership doing most of their own work and still does to this day. The Women’s Auxiliary was also formed in 1963 and have become a working partner supporting the club.

Along the way Inner Harbor highlights included the first area musical cruise, now an annual event, and the first wedding on the river. In 1976 fish fry's were served each first Friday of the month and have since become a culinary tradition among many area boaters. Each year the annual Boat Blessing and Pancake Breakfast are held in June.
