The South African Team Shosholoza is the first syndicate to unveil their new boat
Team Shosholoza unveiled their new boat, the first Version 5 America’s Cup boat to be built as opposed to the ‘old’ boats being modified, at the end of last week in Cape Town. She was scheduled to be shipped to Valencia where the hull will be united with her keel and rig before formal launching on 19 May. Shosholoza was designed by a team headed up by Briton Jason Ker, who has no previous America’s Cup experience.
