ESP-88 DESAFIO ESPANOL yacht

Post by aukepalmhof » Thu Dec 18, 2014 8:30 pm

For the 2007 Louis Vuitton Cup 2007 the Spanish syndicate Desafio Espanol had four yachts the ESP 65, ESP 67, ESP 88 and ESP 97.
The yacht depict on the Micronesia stamp with this hull colours must be the ESP 88, while the Spanish stamp shows a yacht from the syndicate but not a sail number is visible.
ESP 88 was built as an IACC class yacht by King Marine boatyard in Valencia, Spain.
April 2006 christened ESP 88.
The ESP 65 and ESP 67 were used as training yachts, while the other two were used in the Louis Vuitton race in Valencia in 2007. The ESP 88 was not racing in the Louis Vuitton Cup 2007 but more used as a tune boat for the ESP 97.
