Miller and Tim Norton participated in a luncheon held at Newport’s Fort Adams in an attempt to bring the next America’s Cup back to Newport. The oldest trophy in international sport nicknamed the “Auld Mug” is on its US victory tour and has stopped in Newport for a public viewing, harbor parade, and celebration. This is Newport’s chance to show the BMW Oracle Racing Team that we are fully capable to host the next of the cup races.
