The team has recommenced its sea trials with the two AC45s Luna Rossa Piranha and Luna Rossa Swordfish.

Max Sirena, skipper of Luna Rossa said: "The Cagliari base is fully operational. For the next three months we plan 4-5 training days on the water each week to test the systems and new appendages. Every day we learn new things, and the more the time goes by the more we realize how many opportunities we still have for development, exploring and testing. The design team, focused on the AC62, is working closely with the sailors with a continuous exchange of information."
