Supporting ORACLE TEAM USA's leading position and pursuit for victory in 2017 is Yanmar who is providing ZT sterndrive systems and 8LV inboard marine diesel engines for the two 46-foot chase boats - aptly renamed to "Chase Boat YANMAR 1" and "Chase Boat YANMAR 2". With the highest levels of technological excellence, Yanmar leads the way with over 100 years experience in delivering technologically sophisticated marine engines, drive systems, and products of unparalleled performance and quality - exactly what ORACLE TEAM USA will need to secure another victory in Bermuda in 2017.
Working as one is crucial in the challenging world of sailing. This beautiful sport can quickly become dangerous in certain weather conditions, so it's essential that every member of the crew be united to achieve success and remain safe.
At the core of the team are the sailors themselves: 14 extraordinary athletes, however the 15th member of the team is Yanmar, the Japanese manufacturer that supplies ORACLE TEAM USA with high performing engines for its all-important support vehicles. From docking out to docking in before and after each race, to man overboard situations and full on emergencies, the Yanmar-powered support boats are crucial part of ORACLE TEAM USA's success. The team is so proud of their 15th team member that they have the Yanmar logo on their race boat - a reminder that they are a united team that will stick together through thick and thin.
Through offering superior engines and reliable equipment that can always be trusted, Yanmar ensures the team remains safe at all times on the water. As Spithill mentioned "speed's one thing, but reliability is really key because we can't afford for one of those boats to go down" and Yanmar's support prevent this from ever happening, whilst instilling confidence in the team every race.
