The Washington Yacht Club is a motorboating club on the Anacostia River in Washington, D.C. Established in 1910 as an all-white organization, the club was integrated in the 1970s, prompting a turnover to predominantly African American membership. In addition to serving as a marina and social club, the Washington Yacht Club has advocated for the environmental protection of the Anacostia, which at one point was one of the most polluted rivers in the United States. The group's clubhouse and surrounding property were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2020.
