Americas Cup Valencia, Americas cup 2007, buy a property in
Spain and rent it at this peak season time. Welcome to the number 1
choice for Valencia property
Valencia will host the 2007 Americas Cup,
organizers said in Geneva, making the Spanish port the first European
venue since 1851 for sailing's oldest tournament. Valencia, on Spain's
eastern coast, was chosen for its tourism infrastructure and because
steady summer breezes guarantee start times for the 32nd edition of
the race, said Marc Pajot, a skipper at four America's Cups.
It is the first time the event has been held
off mainland Europe in its 152-year history because none of the European
challengers had been successful to win hosting rights until this year's
stunning triumph by a Swiss boat. The 2007 race is expected to broaden
the race's appeal yet further after being dominated by American and
Australasian vessels.
Valencia, Spain's third largest city, is
surrounded by some of the most popular holiday resorts in Europe and
the prospect of drawing huge crowds for what has often been seen as
an elitist sport clearly weighed heavily in the selection.
