Meanwhile in San Diego... BMW Oracle trimaran to start sailing today

Once again, our friend Goli from San Diego sends us the latest photos from the BMW Oracle temporary base in San Diego. The American team will carry out today the first test sail of the trimaran in the Southern California city. Dock out is scheduled at 11:30 am local time.

When the pictures were taken there was hardly any breeze but as can be easily seen, it is a nice sunny day and the forecast calls for a good thermal breeze to build up in the afternoon.
