Yacht club: Gamla Stans Yacht Sällskap.
Country: Sweden.
Established: 2001.
Syndicate head: Hugo Stenbeck.
Helmsman: Magnus Holmberg.

The Swedish syndicate impressed with its hard work in the 2003 regatta in Auckland and will take the experience gained there to Valencia.

Over two thirds of the team returns for the new campaign and they should be very competitive with two boats that were fast in Auckland.

The team intends to build two new boats before the 2007 America's Cup and could be a team to watch.
