Museum Receives
Gift of Sewing Machine

On September 30, 2025, the City Island Nautical Museum accepted the donation of an industrial Singer sewing machine from Landfall Navigation in Stamford, Connecticut.

 

Sean Fleischman, the owner and president of Landfall, is a City Island native and was happy to reconnect with his City Island friends and find a good home for this old vestige of sail-making glory.

 

Landfall is an incredible shop with an amazing selection of sailing related materials and clothing.  They can easily outfit every sailor from the day-tripper to the circumnavigator.

Skiff Donated to Museum

The City Island Nautical Museum received a gift of a skiff from the Hutchinson River Restoration Project.  Find out about how the Museum got the boat into our building on July 15 in this News 12 The Bronx story. Learn more about the skiff by visiting us! 

 

We're open Saturdays and Sundays from 1 to 4 PM through October. Private tours available.
