The new 'home team' has obtained the boats used by America's One World at the last Louis Vuitton series in Auckland and should get a great deal of benefit from their knowledge and design.
This will be the fourth campaign by a Spanish team in the America's Cup, although Desafío Español is a completely new team from previous ones.
The fact that they are based in Valencia will surely be help once time for racing comes around.
