38th America's Cup ACP - The Deal That Saved the America’s Cup

The latest America’s Cup development is the biggest step change in the history of the Cup according to Sir Ben Ainslie. He also says that the newly signed America’s Cup partnership (ACP) is ‘Critical to the future success of the Cup.’ His opposite Grant Dalton is equally bold. ‘If we hadn’t have done this it could have been pretty much the end of the Cup,’ he says. Punchy talk by both given that the Cup has endured 174 years without such interventions. So why do these two key Cup figures think that the America’s Cup Partnership is such a big deal? Matt Sheahan talks to both men about the details that lie behind the new move and asks what it means for the future of the Cup Facebook - @planetsail.org Website - www.planetsail.co.uk Linkedin - www.linkedin.com/in/matthew-sheahan Instagram - matthewsheahan
