The 6-Metre class made its North American debut on these waters in 1915 during the Panama-Pacific International Exposition, and we are thrilled to celebrate 101 years of “elegance & performance” on the Bay. An extraordinary team has worked hard to make this regatta one for the ages. We acknowledge Commodore Kimball Livingston, Club General Manager JJ West, and Director of Race Lynn Lynch for their standard-setting levels of Let your financial dreamsset sail. hospitality and regatta management. With both Classic and Modern “ruled” 6-Metres participating in as many as nine races in the days to come, consistent performance promises to outweigh luck, a missed tide line or a fortuitous wind shift. At regatta’s end, the winning teams will be presented with prestigious fixtures, and all will carry away the thrill of competition on our beautiful San Francisco Bay. May the best team win, and may the Corinthian spirit continue to flourish.

    NATIONAL SAILING HALL OF FAME ANNOUNCES 2018 INDUCTEES Annapolis, Md. (July 19, 2018) – The National Sailing Hall of Fame (NSHOF) today announced the six people who will make up its 2018 class of inductees: famed yachting cinematographer John Biddle (Philadelphia, Penn./ Jamestown, R.I.); three-time Soling World Champion, Brazilian-American Olympian Vince Brun (San Diego, Calif.); and shipbuilder and naval architect William Webb (New York, N.Y.). Three additional Inductees are being recognized with the NSHOF Lifetime Achievement Award: the late Greek-American shipping magnate and veteran offshore sailor, George Coumantaros (New York, N.Y.); businessman, noted maritime memorabilia collector and 1992 America’s Cup winner, Bill Koch (Palm Beach, Fla./ Osterville, Mass.); and 1975 Star World Champion Ding Schoonmaker (Naples, Fla./Watch Hill, R.I.), who was not only instrumental in the founding of the US Sailing Center in Miami but also was a tireless advocate for the sport through his involvement with the national governing body, as well as the International Sailing Federation, now known as World Sailing, of which he served two terms as Vice President. The members of the class of 2018 join 65 previously- recognized individuals as the National Sailing Hall of Fame continues to fulfill its mission by drawing attention and recognition to Americans who have made outstanding contributions to the sport of sailing. Left to right, top to bottom: John Biddle, Vince Brun, George Coumantaros, Bill Koch, William Webb (click image for gallery of high res photos) “On-the-water and off, the notable achievements of this group of inductees are shining examples for sailing’s next generation,” said Gary Jobson, President of the NSHOF.
