The freighter Oceanlady, with the BMW Oracle trimaran on board, set sail from the United States on 15th
December, sailed down the Panama Canal, crossed the Atlantic Ocean and
the Mediterranean Sea and finally arrived in Valencia, where it docked
and the yacht was unloaded on 4th January.

All the organisational wheels have already been set in motion to host a
spectacular America's Cup, where the Swiss Alinghi team and the US BMW
Oracle will battle it out. For the first time, at this latest edition,
the organisation of the next America's Cup will be divided up into four
committees: one dedicated to economic matters, another to logistical
aspects and infrastructures, a third focusing on the technical and
purely sporting side of things, and one for everything related to
promotion and production. In this respect, the organisers are working
to prepare an event that will have an even greater impact as a
television spectacle, with practically unseen boats. Furthermore, the
interior dock will be restored to its full glory in order to attract
the other teams that took part in the 32nd edition of the America's Cup so they feel involved and caught up in the action.
