America’s Cup - Luna Rossa Challenge November 9, 2012 Sail-World.com/NZ

The Italian America's Cup Challenger, Luna Rossa was out on the Hauraki Gulf on Friday for what appeared to be a good training session in a light onshore breeze, which later changed to a moderate offshore breeze as she entered the Waitemata Harbour.

Sail-World's cameras were on hand to capture the sailing and welcome her home at the end of the day.

Emirates Team NZ is still in the shed, being speed-jumped, and she is expected out at the end of next week
