Crewsaver announced that it has been selected by Artemis Racing to become its Official Safety Supplier for the 35th America’s Cup.

With the America’s Cup taking place in Bermuda in June 2017, and with the preliminary Louis Vuitton America's Cup World Series commencing in July 2015, there’s mounting tension and excitement as the teams prepare their campaigns and equipment to take on each other in extreme foiling catamarans.

Crewsaver, a Survitec company, and one of the world’s leading personal floatation equipment manufacturer, is excited to announce its exclusive safety equipment partnership with Artemis Racing; Crewsaver will be working with the Artemis Racing team to develop the most advanced, cutting edge performance technology available to date.

The new designs will enable Artemis Racing’s elite sailors to perform safely, yet to the very best of their ability, under the most challenging of conditions. Specifically, two radical new buoyancy aids, including one designed to meet the sailors’ unique needs aboard the foiling AC Class boat for the 2017 America’s Cup itself, give the team light weight, breathable solutions that provide total freedom of movement and temperature control.
