Endeavour, a 130-foot J Class sloop, was a yacht with enormous charisma from the moment she was launched in 1934. Renowned as the most beautiful J ever built, she swept through the British racing fleet and into the hearts of yachtsmen the world around. Endeavour was designed and built by Camper and Nicholsons of Gosport, England to challenge for the America's Cup. Her owner, airplane magnate Sir T.O.M. Sopwith, applied aviation technology to her rig and winches and spared nothing to make her the finest vessel of her day. |
