King Juan Carlos returns to Sanxenxo and sails again with the Bribón. The regattas return to the center of focus. The announcement of the general elections, for next July 23, disrupted the emeritus plans and caused a change of plans. In other words, it has been decided to delay the competition (scheduled for this weekend) so that the presence of the former head of state does not contaminate the public and media scene. We published it in this digital on June 29.
As sources from the Club Náutico of the Galician town assured Informalia at the time, the attendance of the emeritus king was assured. The condition that Zarzuela set was that his passage through the Ría de Pontevedra be as discreet as possible. A low profile, as we saw in April. Now we have known the date on which those regattas of the Spanish Sailing Cup will be held after their change of dates. It will be between July 28 and 30, as published The vanguard.
This will be the third trip of the emeritus to Spain. It will repeat format and destination: sports content in a private visit and without official perches. It seems that his trips to our country are touched by bad luck. If in the previous attempt, bad weather prevented him from sailing, this time he has been forced not to get in the way of the legislative campaign.
After this rescheduling of the Galician regattas, Juan Carlos has synchronized with his son Felipe VI, who will participate in the Copa del Rey Mapfre in Palma, between July 29 and August 5 in Mediterranean waters.
