Discover the excitement of sailing these impressive vessels. They were once part of the action of the America's Cup, the worlds' oldest active sports trophy and most prestigious sailing regatta. Get involved on the grinders, steer from the helm and find out what it takes to get one of these race yachts moving. Or if you prefer, sit back, watch the action and enjoy the view.
The America’s Cup Yacht Race is the world’s oldest and most prestigious yacht trophy and ultimate yachting regatta. Usually the domain of billionaires and elite professional yachties, the NZL 40 and NZL 41 America's Cup boats offer the opportunity for the likes of you and I to participate, sailing at full pelt on these grand prix racing machines.
Sailing an America's Cup Yacht is unlike most other sailing experiences you're likely to have - the sheer size and mast height means that you'll attract stares from other sailors on the harbour, whilst the speed and smoothness of travel is exhilarating.
You'll be encouraged to take the helm, wind the grinders or, if you prefer, you can just sit back and watch everyone else do all the work as you sail down Auckland Harbour. The trip suits people of all experiences and abilities - and is the perfect activity in Auckland, known as the ‘City of Sails’.
Additional to daily sailings, group charters are available. Numerous options exist which can cater for groups of up to 300 people.
