United Internet Team Germany presents its line-up
Earlier today, United Internet Team Germany (UITG) presented its line-up and became the first team of the 33rd America's Cup to publicly unveil its crew.
A total of 11 nations are represented aboard GER-91 and Jochen Schuemann, co-CEO of the German America's Cup syndicate, put it clear by stating that "this is an international team sailing for Germany". It is also interesting to notice that just 4 sailors from the previous campaign have been retained, the same number of crew that comes from BMW Oracle.
