Has anyone sailed on the America's cup out of Lahina? Strongly considering it for our next trip in 7 days! :D

Thought about doing it in 2004 but I think it was booked up by a corporate vacation or something similar. Sounded very fun though.

My friend was one of the crew on the 1987 America's Cup and brought home an additional trophy (Aussie wife). We later bumped into the Stars and Stripes last year in Hilton Head and it was looking tired.

We've done it twice, both times in the afternoon, and had a blast both times.

In St. Maarten

I did it in St. Maarten on a cruise several years ago while my wife was shopping...big mistake!! ;) Had a blast grinding the winch but wish there had been a little more wind. I can't imagine that being a problem in Lahina. I'll have to look for it next time we are there.
