SI #859 — On the 174th anniversary of AC Zero, something a little different....
SAILING ILLUSTRATED #859 (Fri 22 Aug 2025) — 22 Aug 1851. The race around the Isle of Wight won by the yacht AMERICA. The rest, as they say, is history. We will of course celebrate the 174th anniversary of this seminal event in international sport — not just yacht racing. On Tuesday we invited the FOSI to send us their favorite yacht racing fotos, and they've done in spades. We'll share them on today's show. SI is our beloved sport's only regular live video podcast — yacht racing news, views and notables. It airs on Facebook (fb.com/sailingillustratedblog) and the Sailing Illustrated TV YouTube channel every Tuesday and Friday at 1300 Pacific / 2000 UTC, or watch a replay on-demand later. "Sail Fast, Sail Safe, Have Fun!" #SailingIllustrated. #Yacht Racing News, Views and Notables. *Friends of Sailing Illustrated
