/24-7PressRelease/ - SAN DIEGO, CA, July 23, 2008 - The Holiday Inn San Diego on the Bay, one of the top San Diego downtown hotels, is excited to invite guests to discover the America's Cup experience. With a convenient location on the "Big Bay", there's no better place to weigh anchor for this remarkable attraction.
The famed "America's Cup" yacht race has only previously touched shores in San Diego and Newport, Rhode Island, and now two of the once-competing yachts are available by charter for racing throughout beautiful San Diego Bay. Thanks to Dennis Conner's America's Cup Experience, the general public can go hands-on with some of the finest sailing vessels in the world for the first time ever, an experience that before would exist only in a sailor's wildest dreams.
Dennis Conner's America's Cup Experience offers two eighty-foot racing yachts that competed in the 1995 and 2000 America's Cup respectively, each representing the very elite of the International America's Cup Class (IACC) generation. In 1995, skipper Dennis Conner raced his famous "Stars & Stripes" here in San Diego. The 2000 model, "Abracadabra", raced for the Hawaiian Syndicate in the host city of Auckland, New Zealand.
Both yachts are Coast Guard certified for 20 guests and are available for once-in-a-lifetime hands-on experiences, team-building match race competitions, leisure cocktail excursions and multi-team match racing for groups of up to 120 people in conjunction with their larger yacht "America". To make reservations or request more information, call 1-800-644-3454.
This unique nautical experience is terrific for the whole family, and the Holiday Inn San Diego Hotel on the Bay offers a location just footsteps away from the America's Cup dock. Stroll down the Embarcadero and take in San Diego Bay as you get ready for an experience unlike any other.
