There isn't much to this story apart for the photo. Right after the press conference at the BMW Oracle base, Alinghi's boatbuilding tent opened up and Alinghi 5 came out, apparently ready to be launched on Valencia's waters. If our information is correct and if wind conditions are favorable she should be sailing before the weekend.
