Experience the excitement of sailing aboard one of the fastest and best known Americas Cup Racing Yachts in the world. Stars Stripes USA-11 was the only yacht used by Dennis Conner in the 1992 Americas Cup held in San Diego. Designed and built to be raced in San Diego weather conditions, USA-11 has twice the sail area of the 12 meter yachts from previous years. The strictly racing yacht is 78 feet long with a beam of 17 feet, a mast 115 feet tall, and a 40,000 pound keel 13 feet below water line. She has been restored to pristine condition with carbon fiber sails from modern day racers. Each guest will be encouraged to take a turn at the helm and everyone will see what its like to crew aboard an authentic Americas Cup Racing Yacht. If interested, guests may join in grinding the winches to raise and trim the sails. Water, soft drinks, and light snacks are included. Photos and videos are taken during the sail for immediate viewing after the sail along with complimentary refreshments. The photos are uploaded overnight for free online viewing and downloads.
