The Water Club of the Harbour of Cork was established in 1720, and by 1759
had become the Cork Harbour Yacht Club. In that year the Lords of the Admiralty
granted William, Earl of Inchiquin "a Union flag with the Royal Irish harp and
crown on a green field in the centre" for the club. After 1765 there are no
records of the club being anything other than a Water Club, presenting prizes
for fishermen and rowing-boats at an annual regatta. The Cork Yacht Club was
revived in 1828 when Water Club members combined with the Little Monkstown Club
which had been established on Haulbowline Island in 1822.
