SAN Francisco's Golden Gate Yacht Club has taken legal action to try to remove Swiss yacht club Societe Nautique de Geneve as America's Cup trustee.
Golden Gate filed a breach of fiduciary duty complaint with the New York State Supreme Court on Monday night asking that SNG be replaced by a "faithful trustee" while still allowing the Swiss to participate in the 33rd America's Cup as defender, or to allow SNG as trustee and appoint a neutral party to administer the best-of-three showdown.
GGYC said it filed the complaint in an attempt to get a legitimate venue and fair rules for the racing, set to begin on February 8 in multihulled boats.
The filing is separate from GGYC's request that the court reject Ras al-Khaimah, UAE, as the venue for the racing.
