The leftover sails and team clothing from the Alinghi campaign are to be shipped to Haiti for earthquake survivors, El Mundo has reported.
The Spanish newspaper says that the sails from the enormous catamaran will be re-cut into as many as 1,000 highly durable tents for earthquake survivors, with 65 cases of clothing also being flown out of Madrid today.
The sails will be re-cut and stitched on site, providing work for survivors.
