As the ITA 90 is expected in, Luna Rossa announced the inauguration of its ITA 86.

The new Mascalzone's boat has just left the shipyard of Vittorio Urbinati's Marine Composite in Andora (Savona) and is expected to arrive in Spain at the Longitud Cero Composites of Castellon, where she will be fitted out during the coming weeks.

The construction and fit out are lead by Ximo Lopez and his technicians. The new boat is the design of the Mascalzone Latino-Capitalia Team Design Group led by Harry Dunning.

The official presentation of the new boat is scheduled for the beginning of April.

Meanwhile, Carlo Croce, president of the Yacht Club Italiano, speaking at a conference at the University SDA Bocconi di Milano, said that the christening of ITA 86, Luna Rossa's new boat, is scheduled for March 22.

The christening will coincide with the inauguration of the team's new base in Valencia.
