America's Cup safety recommendations unveiled

This follows the death of Artemis Racing crew member Andrew Simpson during an America's Cup training session earlier this month.

Regatta Director Iain Murray's safety recommendations call for "a competent third party review or testing process of the structural integrity of the platform and wing."

The recommendations are listed in full here.

Murray will now form a number of task forces to bring in experts to define additional technical recommendations for specific safety items such as protective gear for sailors.
