During the unrivalled dominance of the New York Yacht Club, no vessel came closer to winning the America’s Cup from its owners than the Endeavour. She was one of the most stunning yachts of the J Class era: created by the master designer Charles Nicholson for the Royal Yacht Squadron, her speed became legendary, and she was tipped by many to prevail over the Rainbow of Harold Vanderbilt in the America’s Cup of 1934. Sure enough, she stormed to spectacular victories in the first two races of the series, breaking the course record in the second. She made a similarly impressive start in the third race, and seemed unstoppable; but the intervention of master helmsman Sherman Hoyt turned the course of the race, resulting in an American win by a margin of more than three minutes.
