America's Cup Sailing Experience


An unforgettable two hours sailing. 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 ride as you sail the beautiful Waitemata Harbour.

Two hour sailing experience:

  • Participate as crew or sit back and relax
  • No experience necessary
  • Daily sailings, departing from Viaduct Harbour
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, these sailing trips offer the unique opportunity for everyone to participate sailing on these grand prix racing machines.

With the America’s Cup being sailed here in 2000 and 2003, no trip is complete without experiencing the real Auckland, ‘City of Sails’.

America's Cup Match Race

For the ultimate thrill join the crew and participate match racing America’s Cup style.

Your three hour experience begins in the Viaduct Harbour where you will meet the crew and go through a short race and safety briefing. The yachts then depart the Viaduct Harbour and after a period of practice, the action really begins, when we line up in the pre-start and compete head to head. Sailings subject to weather and minimum numbers apply. No experience necessary.

This trip is run in conjunction with another operator.
