This revised edition offers up-to-date images and material in light of the 2001 Cup celebrating its 30th anniversary. The photographs in this book, selected from the Beken archives, cover the history of the competition, from its first challenge in 1870 to its 29th in 1995. Beyond a mere retrospective, the images reveal not only the artistry of the craftsmen and designers who broughts these yachts to life, but also of the crew who sailed them and of the Bekens.
