Australia is world renowned for the acumen of its sailors and is one of only two countries ever to take the mush-prized America's Cup from the United States.  Experience the thrill of competitive sailboat racing on Sydney Harbor, described by National Geographic as one of the most beautiful harbors in all the world.

No previous experience is required as each sail boat has a fully experienced captain.   However, should you wish to get involved in the work of sailing the skipper will gladly provide tips on how to WIN!

In the early afternoon, you'll proceed directly from the ship by air-conditioned motor coach to the marina at Rushcutter's Bay.  Tour members will be divided between two sailing vessels, which will then be pitted against each other.

At the end of the race, each member of the winning team will receive a small memento as a trophy of their victory.

Approximately 3 hours (2 hours on the water).
