The Santa Cruz 70, a class of boats designed by Bill Lee, has left an indelible mark on the sailing world. Introduced in the late 1970s, these boats revolutionized offshore racing with their lightweight construction and exceptional speed. Known for their agility and performance, Santa Cruz 70s quickly became a favorite among sailors, dominating prestigious races like the Transpac and Mackinac Races. Bill Lee's innovative designs and the competitive spirit of the Santa Cruz 70 class continue to inspire sailors around the World. 


The Santa Cruz 70s have made a significant impact on both the Bayview Yacht Club Mackinac Race and the Chicago Yacht Club Race to Mackinac, two of the most prestigious freshwater sailing races in the world. Renowned for their exceptional speed and agility, these sleek vessels consistently emerge as strong contenders in these historic competitions. 


Whether navigating the Bayview Mackinac Race, the Chicago Mackinac Race, or exploring the beautiful waters of South Florida, the Bahamas, and the Caribbean, these boats leave an enduring impression on the sailing community. They embody the spirit of adventure and competition that defines these iconic events and destinations.
