1962 America's Cup : ウィキペディア英語版 | 1962 America's Cup
The 1962 America's Cup, the second to be sailed in 12-meter yachts, marked the first challenge for the Cup from a country other than Great Britain or Canada, and was the first challenge from a country in the southern hemisphere. An Australian syndicate headed by Sir Frank Packer, representing the Royal Sydney Yacht Squadron, challenged with their yacht ''Gretel.'' Although the New York Yacht Club won the regatta four races to one represented by the yacht ''Weatherly,'' the challenger, ''Gretel'' won the second race, beating the Americans for the first time since the 1930s, and only lost the fourth race by twenty-six seconds. The NYYC was so shocked at the closeness of the contest that they immediately changed the rules to ban the use of American design and technology by Cup challengers. ==Defender Series== The NYYC ran a regatta to determine the yacht they would name as defender in the match. Competing were ''Weatherly'', with Emil (Bus) Mosbacher, Jr. at the helm, ''Easterner'', ''Columbia'', skippered by Paul V. Shields, and ''Nefertiti'', helmed by sailmaker and naval architect Ted Hood. ''Weatherly'' was chosen as the defender.
