Doña Letizia sails again. We haven’t seen the Queen on board a boat plying the waters of the Mediterranean for years. One of her last outings, in the summer of 2007. The then Princess of Asturias carried Sofia, a newborn, in her arms and posed with Leonor, a year and a half old. Images of a royal family that have nothing to do with today’s photography. This Wednesday, August 2, Letizia and her daughters are scheduled to leave the sea in a motorboat from where they can follow the regattas of the Copa del Rey de Vela. These are the details, according to The summer program.
Felipe VI, aboard the Aifos, disputes the Mapfre Sailing Cup Preliminary Series, which is held on the coast of the Palmesan bay. His wife and his daughters planned to closely follow the competition from the boat they have rented for the occasion.
These are the details that Mariangel Alcázar has commented: it is a 15-meter-long boat, with capacity for 12 people. A sustainable design, which is marketed through a company based in Malaga. Behind is Marc de Antonio, former sailor and vice president of the Club Náutico de Barcelona. The rental price is around 2,500 euros per day, a private expense that the monarch would have covered with his allowance.
Letizia and her daughters take up the nautical hobby, which in the case of the Bourbons is much more than a sport, it is passion and devotion for the sea.
