The Morgan Cup was presented by the members of the New York Yacht Club to J. P. Morgan as a token of esteem and mark of appreciation for his service to the club as commodore, 1919-1921. It is dedicated as the perpetual award for the winning team of the New York Yacht Club Morgan Cup Team Race Invitational.
