The Ranger won the 1937 America's Cup, defeating 4-0 the Endeavour II of Britain, raced at Newport, Rhode Island. In the last Race, Ranger had set a new Cup record over the triangular course, previously set by Endeavour I in the second race of the 1934 challenge, in 3 hours 9 minutes 1 second that is to say 1 minute 12 seconds less than the 1934 challenger. It would be the last time huge J-class yachts would race for the America's Cup. Harold Stirling Vanderbilt funded construction of the Ranger, and it launched on May 11, 1937. It was designed by Starling Burgess and Olin Stephens, and constructed by Bath Iron Works. Tank tests were carried out with various models and they finally agreed on the model 77C of their designs, and tried to improve it, but in vain: the model was perfect. The choice of the model of Ranger astonished Burgess: without the test results no-one would have dared choose such a design. During the 1937 season, between June and September out of 37 races, including the America's Cup races, Ranger won 35 times. A full size replica was built in 2003. The model is built exactly to scale as the original Ranger was. The task required skillful craftsmen hundreds of hours to accomplish. The model measures 25.6" long from bow to stern. It's a fabulous Yacht Model that will be a conversation piece for any room, office or yacht club.Larger Sizes & Types of America's Cup J Class Yacht Models are Available Highlights about this J class yacht model: 100% hand built from scratch using “plank on bulkhead” construction methodIncluded with this expert level sailboat model is a stand Size: 25.6" overall length x 34" height x 5.7" widthWeight: 2.65 lbs Condition: New (fully assembled) Hundreds of hours where required to finish this model sailboatCompleted model contains many details created by skillful master craftsmen.Made of finest basswood.Metal fittings and hardware constitute the excellence of this yacht modelFully assembled, some easy assembly required, rigging attaches with hooks (no knot tying), instructions are included.Numbered and dated certificate of authenticity included.This model went through a demanding quality control process before leaving the workshop Please buy with confidence-100% money-back guarantee Please browse in Capt.JimsCar-go for more Museum Quality Ship Models, Old World Style Globe Hidden Bars, Metal Cars and Planes, WWI Propellers and Collectibles.
