Description
The crew of the ill-fated Shamrock II tie up the mainsail in New York Harbor on October 3, 1901 during that years America's Cup challenge. This was the second yacht sponsored by the tea magnate, Sir Thomas Lipton, in his many unsuccessful attempts to win back the America's Cup. Though his yachts never won the race his company reaped many financial rewards from sponsoring an entry in such a prestigious international sporting event.
