The area off Malvarossa beach was blessed with the attention of well over a dozen America’s Cup boats as the teams crank up their training schedule ahead of next month’s Louis Vuitton Acts. Weather was perfect for training with winds around 10 knots and a small chop.

For China Team, it was the first sail of CHN 79, and the short-handed crew took to the sea with relish, excited to be sailing again after a long winter. We can expect a repeat of this scene time and again with the Louis Vuitton Acts fast approaching, now less than two weeks away.
