Rainbow - America's Cup 1934

My handmade version of the boat,
its only taken around 8 years to complete as I kept loosing interest making all the planks etc

Designed by Starling Burgess to defend the honour of the United States of America,
Rainbow, winner of the 1934 America's Cup, was skippered by Mr. Harold Vanderbilt,
who had commissioned the yacht specifically to beat the strong contender Endeavour.


other sizes: small medium large original auto
