Crewsaver appointed as Official Safety Provider to the 35th America’s Cup
Crewsaver has been selected to be the Official Safety Provider to the 35th America’s Cup, which will take place in Bermuda from 2 May to 27 June.
With just over a month until the start of the 35th America’s Cup, one of the most hotly anticipated sports events worldwide, there is mounting tension and excitement as the teams prepare to take each other on in Bermuda.
Crewsaver will be providing the America’s Cup with all of the safety equipment needed for their chase boats including lifejackets, helmets, first aid kits, knifes, pyrotechnics and man-overboard rescue equipment, along with a number of marker buoys to help with shepherding boats to the race course.
Dan Barnett, Chief Commercial Officer of the 35th America’s Cup said: “We are very pleased to welcome Crewsaver into the America’s Cup family and are all excited about working with their world class products. Safety is obviously a core focus area for the America’s Cup, so having a company of the calibre of Crewsaver as our Official Safety Provider is the perfect fit for us in this incredibly important area.”
“We are delighted to have been selected as official safety provider to the America’s Cup, it is very clear that our two organisations share many of the same values as far as safety on the water is concerned, making this the ideal partnership opportunity. We look forward to working together to help share these messages to a wider audience through our #LifejacketSafe campaign,” commented Brian Stringer, Survitec Group Chief Executive Officer.
With help from Crewsaver, the America’s Cup will very shortly be launching a number of safety videos, providing viewers with a number of top tips to help them stay safe when out on the water.
