On completion of this work, Olin considered that Columbia would be slightly superior to Vim. In the selection trials, there was a close struggle between Vim and Columbia.
The skipper Briggs Cunningham needed all his strength and all his vigilance to enable Columbia to snatch selection to defend the Cup. Already Olin Stephen’s Twelve Meter science was half a second a mile ahead of Vim, and half minute ahead of Sceptre, the Challenger.
