The new 90ft America’s Cup Challenger, BMW Oracle Racing, had her first outing under full sail off Anacortes yesterday.

The winds were light, but some of the speeds being clocked by the newly launched trimaran were reported as quite remarkable.

It was the first opportunity to see the boat’s vast sail plan, as the team hoisted the main and jib – the extra is yet to be used.
