BMW Oracle receives its second Extreme 40 yacht, the former Holmatro
BMW Oracle just got delivery of their second Extreme 40 catamaran, the former Holmatro. The orange and black yacht arrived at the American base at around 1pm this Monday and its shore crew immediately started working on it.
After Alinghi's start of two-catamaran training two days ago it won't be long before we see BMW Oracle as well sailing off Valencia's coast with its complete armada. The RC44 Gold Cup in Dubai finishes on March 7 and as a result we wouldn't be surprised to see James Spithill and Russell Coutts match racing in Valencia starting mid March.

Pierre,
based on the news presented in the link above it seems the Holmatro Cat is there for practice with the BOR, not to be part of BOR.
