Flying Dutchmen in Altea

No, not a convention of KLM pilots, or even the legend of the ship that was doomed to sail around the Cape of Good Hope forever, but the trials for the European Cup in yachting in the 'Flying Dutchman' class. The three days 3rd, 4th and 5th of February will see some of Spain's best yachtsmen in Altea and they'll be joined by some high level international competition including the current world champs from Hungary!

Also there will be Brits Toby Dale and James Cole who have a top ten ranking in this class and will be hoping to triumph over the other 20 competitors next week. Why not pop along to cheer the lads on?
