GSYS has a relatively short but still prestigious history. In 1995, the club was started by the entrepreneur Jan Stenbeck (Kinnevik) who invested in challenging for the America’s Cup and needed a club to challenge from. 150 Kinnevik employees and a number of Jan’s friends were “forced to join the club”, jokes GSYS chairman Christer Salén. Two ventures were carried out under the club’s banner; “Victory Challenge”, 2003 in Auckland, New Zealand and then 2005-2007 in Valencia, Spain with the boats Cristina, Örn, Järv, Orm. Both projects with good results in the challenger sailings.
