This week in Newport, Rhode Island, the AC45 catamarans mixed it up in Newport Harbor, an area saturated in America’s Cup history. With the extensive on-shore viewing facilities and monstrous catamarans, this was an America’s Cup event for the books. We joined a behind-the-scenes tour to see just how they make the magic come to life. 

America's Cup World Series has started today in Newport, and Crew For A Day Winner Rob Rich is spending the day with the big boys out on AC45 Team Energy. See ongoing coverage on our Crew for a Day Blog.

As you might imagine, Sailstice--which celebrates the longest day of the year by going out for a sail--is everyone's favorite holiday here at SAIL. This year, Sailstice is celebrated on June 23, but we were so excited, we celebrated a couple days early. Here are some fun shots of the staff enjoying Marblehead, Mass., on Editor, Peter Nielsen's boat.
