Oracle Racing has been out sailing for the first time on San Francisco Bay, today.

The two AC45's feature new graphics from those seen at their launch in Auckland, ahead of next week's media functions and announcement/outing of the teams who have been accepted/remain as Challengers in the 34th America's Cup.

Thanks to Erik Simonson of www.pressure-drop.us for these images
