The latest to scuffle, in order of time, was defender Oracle Team USA, during a training session in Bermuda ahead of the 35th America’s Cup. Above you see how it turned out. No injuries, these boats capsize which is a pleasure, one would almost be inclined to say “all in the norm.” The recent history of the America’s Cup, after all, is littered with scuffles and gavages! While we were at it, scouring the web we uncovered various MOD70 and maxi trimaran rollovers. Then. Enjoy your viewing!
