Lipton Challenge Declined by Yacht Club in York Meeting
At a closed yacht club vote in York on Lipton's challenge the club refused the 75 foot waterline limit, rejecting Lipton's request for a vessel of such size. Forty votes cast with 39 in accord and one abstention, keeping the defender’s 60 to 75 foot constraint. The dispute centers on whether a yacht of the M foot class can be built, cross the water, and race safely without sacrificing performance for ocean voyages.
