Emirates Team New Zealand attempted to go sailing off Barcelona, on Monday.

The other teams were in attendance to do their own reconnaissance on the America's Cup champions.

While they towed out, they were thwarted by the lack of breeze.

America's Cup fan Johannes Sommerhäuser was on holiday in Barcelona, and provided these images of the "sail" and launch, including several of the new wing foils.
