The 10th – 13th of July 2008 marks the anniversary of the Trofeo SM La Reina, a regatta which was set up in 1988 as a tribute to the Spanish Navy, and specifically Admiral Sánchez-Barcaiztegui who worked to spread the word about the joys of sailing.
In the 10 year existence the trophy has gained strength and importance and is now one of the most important fixtures on the racing calendar.
The best crews will be coming together in the waters around Valencia for three days, giving a magnificent show for all fans of sailing. In the 2007 edition, over 140 boats from 12 countries unfurled their sails around the three racing grounds set up for the event, and also welcomed a new class to the race: GP 42.
In 2008, the organisers are expecting a good turnout once again as the world of international sailing turns its gaze to Valencia and its Royal Sailing Club.
