America's Cup: Oracle Team USA relaunch USA-17 in San Francisco
Tue, 5 Feb 2013
Oracle Team USA relaunched their first AC72, USA-17, today in San Francisco. She was rebuilt after a catastrophic capsize in San Francisco, which destroyed her wingsail, and severely damaged the platform.
She will now undergo sailing trials and the team will continue their development program from the eight days of sailing they were able to achieve before the capsize.
