Countdown for the Copa del Rey: starts on July 29th
The final countdown begins for the 41st edition of the Copa del Rey: just 20 more days and the famous regatta sponsored by the Spanish company MAPFRE will begin. From 29 July to 5 August eight classes of sails will compete, four in the real time category and four in the handicap. As many as 100 teams will be taking part in the competition this year, from 16 different countries. The Nautor Swan team will be taking part with the ClubSwan 50 and 42: it promises to be an intense challenge for the podium! Prizes will be awarded to the best boats in both categories.
As the organisers of the sporting event point out, the regatta days’ programme will be complemented by live music performances, tastings, cocktail parties for the owners, and, finally, the prize-giving ceremony for the winners.
