Overview The U.S. SailGP Team is the American boat in SailGP, a 15-meter F50 catamaran that lifts clear of the water on its foils and topped 100 kilometers an hour on the Hudson in 2026, with Lindsey Vonn, Gary Vaynerchuk, Marc Lasry, Issa Rae and DJ Khaled on its board and investor group. It raced the league's first season in 2019 and won grands prix in Sydney and Valencia in 2026. SailGP is a league of national teams in identical boats: the league builds and maintains every F50 and shares the technical data between teams. The 2026 championship had 13 teams and 13 grands prix, from Perth in January to a grand final scheduled for Abu Dhabi in November. Matchday A grand prix takes two days on a short course laid close to the shore. The fleet runs up to seven races across the weekend, and the top three meet in a winner-take-all final. The home race is New York, where the course runs past the Statue of Liberty with the Lower Manhattan skyline behind it. It is close to home for a crew with New York and Rhode Island roots, and in 2025 the team expected a big turnout of friends and family on Governors Island, rare on a global circuit. For New York in 2026 the team ran its own Fan Zone on Pier 17, launched a Tommy Hilfiger capsule collection during race week and put guests in the boat as a sixth sailor: TV realtor Ryan Serhant and New York Liberty forward Breanna Stewart both rode the F50. Talent and Influencers The 2026 crew listed Taylor Canfield as driver, Hans Henken on flight control, Michael Menninger on the wing, Andrew Campbell and Louisa Nordstrom as strategists, and Anna Weis, Peter Kinney and Mac Agnese grinding, with Harry Melges IV also on the roster and Marcus Lynch as head coach. Canfield took over the helm during the 2023-24 season. Before the Geneva event in September 2026 the team signed Martine Grael, the Brazilian who had driven her own country's boat, and she won a race in her first weekend at the wheel, sailing alongside Anna Weis. Track record Season finishes: sixth of six in 2019, third in 2021-22, seventh in 2022-23, eighth in 2023-24. Its event wins run Saint-Tropez in 2022-23 and Cadiz in 2023-24, then Sydney and Valencia in 2026. Brand presence Team partners ride on the F50's livery and the race kit and in the team's own environments at each stop. Crypto.com and OG Prediction Markets signed a multi-year global partnership in May 2026 and debuted on the boat at New York; Leyton, the tax firm, came on in February 2026 with a mark on the boat, team signage, digital placement and a seat at team-hosted B2B events. Barton and Gray began supplying Daychaser 48 yachts in 2025, branded with the team's logo, so partners and guests can watch practice and racing from the water. FanCapital, which grew out of Williams Racing and Dorilton Capital, sells the team's partnerships.
