Winning the King's Cup described how the famed yacht Elena won the 1928 King of Spain's Cup in the first transatlantic race since 1905. The grueling contest battling winds and calms was met at its conclusion with a brilliant reception by King and court at Santander, the summer capital of Spain, and made for an epoch-making event in the yachting world.
