More On This Event

Join us for a special screening of the award-winning documentary Mighty Mary, followed by a conversation with three members of the Mighty Mary sailing team: Dawn Riley, Hanna Swett, and Dave Dellenbaugh.

All three are members of the Sailing Hall of Fame and will share their firsthand experiences from this extraordinary chapter in sailing history.

Mighty Mary

Narrated by Elizabeth Banks and Hugh Jackman, Mighty Mary tells the remarkable true story of the first all-women's sailing team to contend for the America's Cup, one of the world's most prestigious and exclusive sporting competitions.

Directed by award-winning filmmaker and Olympian Mary Mazzio, the documentary follows an unlikely team of world-class sailors, Olympians, and trailblazers who challenged the establishment and defied expectations.

Initially dismissed as a publicity stunt, the team stunned the sailing world by defeating Dennis Conner's legendary Stars & Stripes team, only to have a secret backroom deal threaten their historic achievement.

An inspiring underdog story about resilience, determination, and the women who changed the course of sailing history.

Production Credits: Directed by Mary Mazzio. Produced by Mary Mazzio and Allison Abner, along with Grant Hill, in partnership with Skydance Sports and Paramount's Republic Pictures.
