Team Germany 

Published: 11:42AM Wednesday May 11, 2005

Yacht club: Deutscher Challenger Yacht Club.
Country: Germany.
Established: 2005.
Syndicate head: Uwe Sasse.
Helmsman: Jesper Bank.

Team Germany is the first German challenge to sail for the America's Cup in its 154-year history.

They will be led by skipper Jesper Bank of Denmark. He is a two-time Olympic gold medallist and previous America's Cup skipper in 2002/2003 with the Swedish team Victory Challenge.

While they are a late inclusion into the 2007 event, they should improve very quickly, particularly with the knowledge that Bank can call upon.

A team for the future.
