How Can Build Your Own From Scratch Gucii


For the 34th America's Cup competition the city of San Francisco, California is being added to the roster of host cities. 'Auld Mug', as yacht racing fans call the cup, is returning to the USA for the first time in 18 years.

And Gucci is resuming sponsorship activities for the series of regattas that determine the Challenger for the 2013 competition. This brings the Gucci Cup back to the America's Cup World Series and the resumption of 25 years of helping to determine the most competitive contestant to go up against the defender, America's Oracle Team.It all started in 1851. Henry W. Paget, the 1st Marquess of Anglesey, donated this ornate trophy to the Royal Yacht Squadron as the prize for a yearly regatta around the Isle of Wight.

The boating syndicate that owned the schooner 'America' gave the prize to the New York Yacht Club in 1857; to always remain available for international competition. There the cup remained until 1983. The New York Yacht Club's record winning streak was broken by the yacht 'Australia II', crewed by the Royal Perth Yacht Club.
