Item Number: MBTAMR30America 1851 30" America 1851 was the winner of the One Hundred Guinea Cup on August 1851. America 1851 defeated 14 British yachts round the Isle of Wright, in a fleet race by the Royal Yacht Squadron. America was designed by George Steers, a revolutionary designer who gave ships a knife-like bow widening aft, contrasting the previous practice of giving ships a rather blunt bow and a sharp stern.
