Still the front crossbar, as in San Francisco but fortunately without consequences for any crew member, from what we learn from the team’s official communication. Bad accident in Bermuda for Artemis Racing, which literally destroyed its AC45 employed to test some solutions that will later be applied on the AC50.

The team was training in Bermuda when the 45 literally imploded: in the photo we offer, posted by Sailing Anarchy, you can see the open airbag, at the head of the wing, which should have allowed the catamaran to remain lying at 90 degrees if it had been a classic capsize.
