Lipton Lacks A Designer For America's Cup Bid
Sir Thomas Lipton announced after a London conference with George L Watson that Watson refused to design a challenger for the 1905 America's Cup citing ill health. Lipton urged Herreshoff to come to Britain with a year’s citizenship and a commission to build a boat. Yachtsmen argue for setting conditions before a challenge rather than after, and Lipton notes the risks of extreme yacht measurements on crew safety.
