Man who smashed the America's Cup sells 'souvenirs' of his actions


Recommended Posts

The man who smashed up the America's Cup more than 20 years ago is now selling the shirt he wore during the attack on Trade Me.


Maori activist Benjamin Nathan, who was then 28, walked into Auckland's Royal Yacht Squadron on March 14, 1997 and took to the sailing trophy with a sledgehammer, whilst chanting in Maori.


Today he's listed the Maori sovereignty T-shirt he says he was wearing at the time, on the online auction website.
