The Ranger is a sailing ship of J-class with an overall length of 41.2 m, built in 1937, after drawings by Olin Stephens and Starling Burgess. The Ranger valiantly defended the US trophy in 1937, winning the 16th edition of America' S Cup by crushing the challenger ship Endeavour II by 4 victories to 0. The Ranger was the first sailing ship to have largely profited from technology transfers of the areronautics field, with in particular the use of aluminium for the 47 m mast with an elliptic section, the bridge port-holes in light bakelite, and the sails in synthetic rayon. Thanks to this indisputable technological lead, Ranger was victorious 34 times out of the 37 regattas it ran.
A faithful copy of this sailing ship was recently built and launched (2005), to appear in regattas between these legendary sailing ships.
Ranger, the 1937 A-Cup contender, in original colors of red and white. Clean white sails, detailed stitching. Planks on frame. Classic home décor. This model is the first of a new Gold Series of collectible A-Cup models, signature AM with certificate of authenticity included.
