Another remarkable participant is Javier Sanz, Real Club Nautico de Palma President. Mr Sanz decided to charter a ClubSwan 42 for this event, and he declared that this is a very special year for him as a sailor, being the first time taking part in the Copa del Rey MAPFRE onboard a ClubSwan 42.
“I am strongly convinced that the One Design Classes are the true essence of sailing and I cannot wait to see the competition begin to understand the potential of our team. We will do our best, even if our competitors are very good teams and racing will be very tight!”Once again Swan yachts will be protagonists in one of the best events organized in the Mediterranean waters showing their capatibilities in both One Design class and ORC.
