Team Building Activities in San Diego

Sail USA-11 and IL Moro ITA-16 provide a one of a kind team building program that demonstrates the value of the team with an exhilarating sailing race on the San Diego Bay!



Our authentic America’s Cup racing yachts provide the perfect venue for team building and/corporate sailing charters; dividing your team into groups to race one another. Stars & Stripes USA-11 and IL Moro ITA-16 both competed in the America’s Cup venue held here in San Diego in 1992. Your guests will join our crew of 6 on each boat to form a team to get the maximum performance out of each racing yacht. Under the supervision of our crew, your team members will take the helm, make tactical decisions, and grind the winches to trim the sails. We will have a series of 3 races up and down San Diego Bay to see which team can make the claim of America’s Cup winners. Prior to the sail, we will provide a brief history of the America’s Cup and details of each boat. During the sail, a photographer will be on board each boat to document all the action for immediate viewing afterward in our club house. The photos and videos will also be uploaded to Google Albums for later viewing online.
The price for both boats for the 3 hours on the water is $3,600. Water, soft drinks, light snacks, beer and wine are all included. There are no additional taxes or fees and crew gratuity will be at your discretion. All we require for confirmation is a 50% deposit that is refundable up to 2 weeks prior to the sail. You can choose your time frame, but recommend early afternoon for optimal wind conditions. Links to videos of a recent race follow: IL Moro leading Stars & Stripes. Stars & Stripes catching up. Grinding the winches.

Totally in control
“We went out with the Stars and Stripes team for a corporate team–building event. Even though there was not much wind, the crew helped us catch it once outside the bay and even made 11 knots during a team race. Liked the slide show of the history of the America’s Cup and the debriefing with photos afterwards. Best thing – I never once felt seasick on this big boat!”

Sailing on Stars and Stripes USA-11
“I have sailed (raced and cruised) on several continents for over 40 years so I thought this was going to be an activity my friends would enjoy. We spend a week vacationing in San Diego every year and this is by FAR the best activity we have experienced. I expected the boat to perform well but had no idea how well it performed. The pre-sail briefing was an excellent overview of the history of the America’s Cup and the changes to boat design over the years. Once out on the bay the crew got everyone involved – I can see why businesses use it for team building. There were 7 crew members and 21 guest and the cockpit was not crowded. After returning to the dock we enjoyed refreshments and reviewed the many photos that were taken throughout the day. I highly recommend sailing on Stars and Stripes to anyone interested in boating on San Diego Bay. It is worth every penny!!!”

Great day on the water
“Took my team out for an afternoon on Stars and Stripes and couldn’t have had more fun. Great boat, great crew, great team building event. My team came from the four corners of the globe including Singapore, China, Japan, Europe and the US for a meeting and this trip. We all had a great time helping with the sails and taking the helm, and the pictures and videos were amazing! Highly recommend this trip!”

Can’t go wrong
“Our team of 15 took a sail with Stars & Stripes for a team–building activity and had a blast! We all had a chance to turn the wenches and steer the boat- which was an amazing experience. It made you really appreciate both the beauty of San Diego and the coordinated effort it takes to manage a boat like the ones that race in America’s Cup. The staff was excellent! Stars & Stripes even provided a photographer at no extra cost and treated us to beer & wine after the sail to enjoy the slideshow.”

This is a great experience and a terrific team building opportunity. Working together as a part of the crew, we helped sail one of the Americas Cup boats. The crew was friendly and helpful and it was a great escape for the team. Everyone had a turn at the helm and they took hundreds of pictures that they post online and are available to you at no additional charge.”

Took a sail to celebrate a birthday and couldn’t have asked for a more enjoyable experience! The crew was very knowledgeable and passionate about sailing and took the time to get everyone involved with the experience. If you’re looking for a great view of the bay paired with a great team–building experience look no further.”

Outstanding !!!!
“Great team building activity. Ship is pristine and entire organization is OUTSTANDING!!!! Can’t wait to do it again.”

The Best Corporate Team Building Activities in San Diego As a manager, you have been placed in a position of serious responsibility. Hiring, evaluating, and training new employees is a common but time consuming part of your job.

The mood in a workplace can be the difference between happy employees and strong cooperation skills or an apathetic workforce who cannot wait for 5 o’clock t

Your Awesome Guide to Sail San Diego with Stars

Guide to Sail San Diego on America’s Cup Sailing Charters Going sailing in itself is an exciting, fun activity - but it gets better. Why not sail on a boat/yacht that was once used for racing? Sounds like a good thrill to me! What exactly is America’s Cup? America’s Cup is the single oldest international sporting trophy in the entire world - first being contested in 1851 in a race. It has also been claimed to be the most unfair competition in all sports because the Defender, the winner, was awarded the ability to choose the venue of the next race. This then gives the Defender an obvious, unfair advantage over the other racers/sailors. Still, though, because of its infamous status, the America’s Cup Sailing charter in San Diego - Stars & Stripes - it has almost one-hundred-percent positive reviews, this for those interested in sailing San Diego coasts. Do I really have to race someone? No, there is not necessarily any racing in America’s Cup sailing . But, please note that
