Japan name Barker captain for America's Cup challenge


(Reuters) - Former Team New Zealand skipper Dan Barker has taken over as the new chief executive and captain of Japan's challenge for the next America's Cup, organisers said on Thursday.

The 43-year-old skippered New Zealand's last three America's Cup challenges but left the team earlier this year after they asked him to take on a land-based role rather than leading the team on the water.
