San Francisco Sailing aboard America’s Cup Yacht

If you are looking for an exciting adventure in San Francisco, California,  look no further. Come sailing aboard USA 76 and feel the thrill of a true America’s Cup racing experience.

USA 76 is a 50,000 lb, carbon fiber yacht used by the Oracle Racing team to challenge for the 2003 America’s Cup held in Auckland, New Zealand. While the Swiss Team Alinghi won the Cup in March, 2003, a “rematch” was hosted in San Francisco later that year. USA 76 carried Oracle to victory giving the Golden Gate Yacht Club and the team a chance to regain their pride after the Auckland defeat. Since June of 2011, USA 76 has been available for public charter and offers a unique experience to anyone who steps aboard.
