RACING YACHT REGATTA ON HUDSON – JUNE 21
In its inaugural year, SailGP will host five races around the world, including one here on the Hudson between The Battery and Rockefeller Park waterfront on Friday and Saturday, June 21 and 22, 5 to 7p. The league is currently comprised of six teams total, each representing one nation: the United States, Australia, China, France, Great Britain and Japan. Each team will race in identical, supercharged 50-foot foiling catamarans – the F50 – capable of breaking on-water speeds of 60 mph (which puts you in Jersey in 12 seconds). There will be a “race village” that is free to the public at Brookfield. You can also buy tickets to watch the race from one of three sight-seeing boats, such as the Circle Line.
