A Mil Mi-26 helicopter lands America's Cup defenders new catamaran Alinghi 5 after it was moved from its construction site in Villeneuve to Le Bouveret July 8, 2009. Alinghi have chosen a giant catamaran with a length of 27.4 metres (90 foot) and a mast of about 50 metres (164 foot) to face U.S. challenger Oracle for 33rd America's Cup races in February 2010. The boat will follow a development program over the next weeks on Lake Leman. REUTERS/Valentin Flauraud (SWITZERLAND SPORT YACHTING)
