Artists of the first gold of the impressive Spanish sailing medallion, Alejandro Abascal and Miguel Noguer were awarded last night with the Pioneers Award

Spanish athletes continue to write beautiful pages in the history of our country's sport, placing it at the top of the international scene in every competition they attend. This is why the Spanish Olympic Committee wanted to conclude the year 2023 by winning in the 18th Gala of the COE all those athletes who have been protagonists thanks to their great successes.

In the case of the candle, the recognition of Alejandro, Jane Abascal and Miguel Noguer with the Pioneer Prize is more than deserved. After the first bronze medal obtained by Santiago Amat in Finn in Los Angeles 1932 and the silver medal by Antonio Gorostegui and Pedro Millet in 470 Male in Montreal 1976, Abascal and Noguer inaugurated with gold in Flying Dutchman obtained in Moscow 1980, an impressive rosary of the most precious metal that for the moment has 13 medals. No doubt a hard-to-beat brand of which the Spanish candle is proud.
