Investigation
BBC Sport's Tony Husband in Bermuda
By any standard we've seen a standout amongst the most emotional days in America's Cup history. This was hustling ideal on the edge in slippery conditions out on Bermuda's Great Sound.
For a great part of the year this North Atlantic island is a sun-doused heaven, however the mists obscured, the twist exploded a strong tempest and the best mariners on the planet were stretched as far as possible. What's more, that is the place errors can happen.
The overturn was sensational. Experienced mariners indicated the youthful Kiwi rudder Pete Burling being out-hurt by Ben Ainslie in front of the begin, compelling the blunder which sent the vessel stumbling over itself and into the water. Fans in the show off could scarcely accept what they were seeing.
The Kiwis have been so prevailing in this current America's Cup, the mightiest of the Challengers all of a sudden stricken in the Sound.
It cleared out Burling sitting in charge 15 meters open to question, doubtlessly considering how terrible the harm is and whether this opposition has recently seen a tremendous defining moment, exactly when it resembled the British were at the final turning point.
