San Diego is the perfect place to take a sunset sail, with one of the most spectacular natural harbors in the world. The weather is often perfect, with sunny skies and nice afternoon breezes.

This historic, 139-foot racing yacht is so stable, seasickness is almost never a problem. America is known as the low black schooner, a sleek black hulled sailboat. She is a replica of the original America  - the first America’s Cup winner. This is truly the best way to see San Diego.

 

Sunset Yacht Cruise on the San Diego Bay

We'll provide some light snacks and beverages, you bring the beer & wine if you like. We'll give you a history of this famous yacht, the America's Cup and the status of the 'cup' competition as we know it today. You get to pitch in and help us raise the huge sails, take a turn at the helm, snap off as many lovely photographs as you like....and dwell in the amazing atmosphere that comes with sailing on a yacht so beautiful and so famous. It's called "bragging rights". Tell the family and neighbors when you get home....that you helped sail Dennis Conner's legendary 'AMERICA".

"AMERICA" is not only very beautiful but quite fast for a yacht of 139 Ft. While we may not always achieve her top speeds of 14 to 17 knots during a late afternoon San Diego sunset sail, you are guaranteed to be impressed by how smoothly she slides through the bay while you sip a cocktail and take in the sights.

If you are here on the right evening you may well find yourself in a race with any number of smaller craft gathering around to try their speed against the "AMERICA". Be assured that when you are a guest on this magnificent yacht that you are the center of attention on San Diego Bay.
