Although the Spaniards, including King Juan Carlos (Olympian 1972  at Kiel in the Dragon class) have excellent sailors, it was not sure whether to participate in the AC in 1992. When collecting money the "Columbus-year" with the celebration of the Discovery of America for 500 years helped the team so magnificent, that they  immediately decided to apply for a Cup challenge. The syndicate had two yachts, the ESP 5 and ESP-22 under contract. The latter sailed in the LVC and finished  the RoundRobin 3 with 27 points.
