The 2017 Red Bull Youth America's Cup was the 2nd Youth Americas Cup and was held in Bermuda from 12 - 21 June. The Youth America's Cup used the America's Cup 45 AC45F class, a one-design foiling wingsail catamaran designed by Oracle Racing. The yachts have 6 crew onboard with teams having one additional substitute (skipper, helm, strategist, main trimmer, jib trimmer and bow). All athletes were aged between 19-24, and teams could choose to include female athletes, although, only Land Rover BAR did so.
