Yacht America was a historically significant sailing yacht, best known for her victory in the first America's Cup race in 1851. This race is considered the oldest and most prestigious international sailing competition.
The America's Cup race was first held in 1851 around the Isle of Wight in England. The Yacht America, built in 1851 in the United States, was one of several sailing yachts that participated in this competition. The main part of her crew were Americans, who succeeded and defeated the British boats, standing behind the origin of the name of the race.
Yacht America's victory over the British sailboats earned the USA the first America's Cup, and this victory established the tradition of this prestigious competition that continues to this day. Yacht America was so special that even though she was originally built for the race, her name became synonymous with the America's Cup race itself.
