San Francisco SailGP – Training Sessions

Big foiling sailing boats are back in San Francisco! This is the second stop of the new sailing circuit Sail GP. The boats are based on the ones used for the 2017 America’s Cup in Bermuda, but are “redesigned, re-engineered and rebuilt from the inside out”. These boats are fast (>60 mph) and they are all identical.  Races are on May 4th and 5th from ~12.30pm–2pm. An event not to be missed!

Here is a selection of images from the training session of April 29th, 2019. Additional pictures can be found in this gallery.

PS: If you happen to have a boat and be on the water this week or weekend and have a space to spare, I would love to join you. Thanks!
