HAMILTON, Bermuda (Reuters) - Britain will not be bringing the America's Cup home this year but they narrowly beat New Zealand to clinch the Red Bull Youth America's Cup in Bermuda on Wednesday.

Victory for the Land Rover BAR Academy crew over NZL Sailing Team in the eight-boat final was some consolation for the British after the senior team led by Ben Ainslie were dumped out of the America's Cup by New Zealand in the semi-final.
