Aha! Iceboat Gull is mentioned in a New Jersey race in this article from the New York Times, 6 January 1918. -22 January 1918 NY Times mentions a collision between Gull and Tyro in a race at Red Bank, New Jersey. Given the adjacent photo of crowds on the ice is labeled "At Red Bank", it seems likely this is the site of these photos.

Nice old gaff-rigged stern-steering sloop. This was once the most ppular design, way back when...

Thanks! We'll add the information in the source data and reload the description.

the boat has an interesting design. I never seen anything like that and it doesn't look to stable if there were heavy winds.

The third class Gull was built specifically for my great-great-grandfather, Daniel V. Asay, by Joseph Lake. I haven't yet discovered the exact year it was built but it was mentioned in an article in the Red Bank Register in 1906. He sold it in 1917 to Robert Johnson. Daniel Asay lived in Red Bank, N.J., and sailed on the North Shrewsbury River.

In it's winter mooring, the steamboat Albertina or the Sea Bird offering a better vantage point. A great view for a steamboat fan.
