Légende

The 12 Metre 'Vim' sailing close-hauled, 1939. Designed in 1939 by Olin Stephens, 'Vim' had numerous innovative features including a trim tab on the rudder, two-speed winches and a lighter mast made of Duralumin (a form of aluminium used in the aircraft industry). 'Vim' is considered a benchmark design which was continually refined over her racing career. In 1939 'Vim' came to the UK and won 19 races out of 28.
