For the development and promotion of the sailing activity, the historic Marivela, or the office of the Navy General Staff, which deals exclusively with sailing sports, has been reactivated, leaving the management of the competitive component of all other sports to the Sport Office. This will also allow to increase the capacity of the 13 sailing sections present throughout the national territory.
