VIDEO: John Bertrand – Racing on the Edge

America’s Cup legend John Bertrand has both won the trophy and lost a boat in his 30 year America’s Cup career. “If we weren’t on the edge, we weren’t going to be competitive.” Bertrand describes the experience of when his One Australia team’s boat, while competing in the 1995 America’s Cup, suddenly broke in half in heavy seas and sank within two minutes.
