What is this?
Update: As most have correctly guessed, it is the deck of an America's Cup Class yacht, in particular its winches. The photo is not rotated but the hull is upside down. In fact it is the deck of the last boat built by a challenger of the America's Cup, Mascalzone Latino Capitalia Team's ITA-99, inside the boatyard in the UK, just before it was put on the truck in order to be shipped to Valencia. The photo is obviously courtesy of the team.
After it arrives in Valencia next week, the only yacht still to be seen will be Alinghi's SUI-100, presumably in the last stages of construction in the Décision boatyard in Switzerland.
The first two quizzes have been fairly easy, if it is to judge by how fast the correct answer was given. I hope this one is much more difficult and will not result in brain teaser being solved within half an hour. Can you tell what it is?

Not sure who. But an upside down AC boat in the shed with a gloss / wet finish thats giving it a mirror effect.

It's a deck of an ACC, photo is rotated.
its not rotated, as you can see the fire extinguisher is right way up, my inital thought was underneath of tender, but agreeing with AC cockpit, which has been turned upside down. not a clue which team
the internal of a shop!
evviva lo spirito di Napoli!
I wonder, How could an Italian team has its boat build in an UK boatyard?

the hull has to be built in the country of origin, but can be fitted out at any location.
this is the hull of a brand new ACC being unwrapped from her plastic protection.
