yeah I was surprised by that when I was looking up the history, if I remember rightly it all started with the Hundred Guinea Cup on in the 1850s, by the Royal Yacht Squadron of Great Britain for a race around the Isle of Wight., and then when the Americas won it they changed the name to the Americas cup
I knew there was a connection to a race around the Isle of Wight, but not when it became the Americas cup, thanks for that.
