HM-PM-07
New product
Buy a model of the J-class yacht, Endeavour I, launched for the 1934 America's Cup by Camper and Nicholson. First built in 1934 in Gosport, Portsmouth Harbour, England, the Endeavour I has preserved the art of plank-on-frame wood boat construction for almost 100 years.
This framed Endeavour I is very easy to handle and will highlight your living room. Made of Brasilian Mahogany and Plexiglas it stands up to the passing centuries and protects from dust. A very good investment that will not disappoint you.

Thomas Octave Murdoch Sopwith , Shamrock V's owner ( he acquired her in 1932 ), decided to enter the fray. He ordered a new J Class from Charles E. Nicholson, Endeavour. Nicholson designed his most fabulous challenger, with a very elegant shape and real speed capacities.
The fifteenth challenge of the America's Cup was quite a paradox: the faster yacht was beaten by the slower but better sailed yacht. In fact, with Rainbow, the Americans were saved solely due to her tactical sense and a lot of luck.
Endeavour layed down for years in the USA, without care. She was rescued by Elizabeth Meyer, of Newport, RI. Today after a $ 10,000,000 restoration, she is one of the most breathtaking sights on the water. To take helm of such a boat is to experience pure power, grace and speed.
