Luna Rossa repairs broken STP65 mast

The Italian team's shore crew has been finally able to successfully repair the damaged mast and it now appears that its STP65 is ready to sail again. The yacht, together with the German STP65 from Team Container, will leave Valencia in order to take part in the opening event of International Maxi Yacht Association next week.
