Besides the nominated team the
other team members of the sailing team will also
come into operation during the races.
"Of course we will fall back to the whole team
during Act 13 and the Round Robins", said Skipper
Jesper Bank. "It is not possible to master
a tough sailing schedule like this without a rotation
on the positions. I am therefore very happy to have
the chance to fall back on so many good sailors".
"The frame for our team consist of experienced
Cup sailors and young, highly-motivated talents”,
added Head of Syndicate Michael Scheeren.
The starting team consists of seven Germans, three
Danish, two French, two Swedes and one sailor each
from Australia, New Zealand and the USA.
