Fans of SailGP saw the dramatic footage and imagery of China SailGP Team crashing down on San Francisco Bay earlier this week. The crash was the first of its kind on the new season of high-performance racing in the F50 catamaran. In a matter of seconds, the Chinese team had gone from flying meters off the water to crashing down, bows buried, into the waves. The outcome was a damaged wing-sail and a time crunch to remain in contention for San Francisco SailGP.
