Meanwhile in Valencia... Luna Rossa and Container STP65 ready to start training

While the 19 competitors of the 33rd America's Cup were discussing inside the Alinghi base, the Luna Rossa base was getting busier as the team will start training with their brand new STP65 yacht, together with the German team Container.

According to the information we have, most sailors will arrive in Valencia on Tuesday and the two sparring partners will hit the waters off Malvarosa beach on Wednesday. This first training session will last one week. We will try to have photos of video of the first sail on Wednesday.
