A unique opportunity to participate as crew on an actual America's Cup yacht
Take the helm, exert energy on the grinders or simply sit back and enjoy the action as we sail the beautiful Waitemata Harbour!
Feel the thrill of the wind in your face as you tack and jibe. Experience the excitement of sailing, no experience necessary.
The America's Cup is the world's oldest and most prestigious sporting trophy and ultimate yachting regatta. Usually the domain of billionaires and elite professional yachties, our America's Cup yachts offer the unique opportunity for everyone to participate in sailing on these grand-prix racing machines.
Must be 10 years and over. Wear flat soled footwear, have sunscreen, a hat and jacket.
NOTE: Discount bookings are Non Transferable and Non refundable.
This was well worth the trip. It was exciting and was real value for money! Highly recommend
If you are at Auckland for a few days I suggest you book this at the start, it can and did get cancelled due to high winds and then on the Friday it was light winds but the experience at the discounted prices was great, the crew (esp. the Skipper) were always giving information out freely and made it a great trip anyway, but due to the light winds (although we did get some speed up at one point and the Genoa was raised which was amazing and massive) we did get a voucher to go again (bit of a trip to NZ to use it but a great gestor all the same), I did get to helm the yacht twice and did a bit of grinding on the first sail raising (that was hard work!). I felt the cancellation was a little hasty as that day seemed to be a great day for sailing speaking from experience. Overall I would highly recommend if you into sailing or would like to experience something very different.
