YANMAR's Road to the America's Cup

At 173 years, the America's Cup is the oldest sporting trophy in international sport and the latest Cup cycle is well underway. This is the first in a regular series of features about the road to the America's Cup that we will run through to the Cup match itself in October 2024 in Barcelona. The series, which was commissioned by Yanmar will take a deep dive into the Cup and look at everything from how the event works, to the complexity and outstanding performance of the current generation of boats as well as why this event is so special. We will look at how the Cup has influenced the sport and why it has proved to be such an obsession for those that have tried to win the richest prize in sailing.
