O que este vídeo aborda

Shamrock V, the 178-ton J-Class racing yacht damaged at the 2017 St. Bart's Bucket regatta in the Caribbean, was relaunched on 19 May 2024 after six and a half years ashore and a multi-million pound restoration.5:21 Steve, co-owner of SV Cordelia and a boatyard professional, performed the original 2018 haul-out — a two-day lift requiring 12 belts and 200 tons of rated capacity — and returned to handle the splash, closing a job he started before leaving the UK five years earlier.0:03 The restoration replaced all 6,500 bronze fastenings, restored nearly all original teak planking, repaired the steel framework, refurbished the 2000-era internal joinery, and added a new-style saloon.2:12 Shamrock V holds the distinction of being the first British America's Cup contender with a Bermudan rig and the only original J-Class never to have fallen into dereliction.1:40 The 50-metre keel-stepped mast could not be stepped at the launch site because the Itchen Bridge air draft is only 23 metres; it was loaded onto a 75-metre barge and transported to Portsmouth for stepping.8:14 Launch conditions on 19 May were near-calm, and the boat entered the water without incident.5:33
