Yacht America 1851 replica in Chestertown Maryland

Yacht America 1851 replica came to Chesterton Maryland for a dual day sail with the Sultana, a replica of a 1768 schooner. America was the first winner of America's Cup. The replica of America was built in Albany NY in 1995 and now hails out of San Diego. She was on tour this past summer to promote next years America's Cup in Bermuda.

Great footage of sailing on those old classics! I went for a long sunset sail on "America" when she was tied up in Newport, RI.
