During their summer holidays, the whole family spends time at Marivent Palace (Palma de Mallorca) and on the yacht Fortuna, where they would take part in sailing competitions.
This is outdated: the royal yacht Fortuna stopped being used by Juan Carlos in 2013 and was returned to its donors, so the family does not currently spend holidays on it.
Full reasoning
The sentence is written in the present tense, but Fortuna has not been the Spanish royal family’s yacht since 2013.
- In May 2013, El País reported that Juan Carlos had decided not to use the yacht any more and that the donors wanted it returned.
- In July 2013, Majorca Daily Bulletin reported that the Spanish government had agreed to return Fortuna to the Balearic foundation that donated it, adding that the yacht was "no longer wanted by King Juan Carlos" and that the last time he used it was in 2011.
Because the yacht was given up and returned in 2013, it is incorrect to say, in the present tense, that the family "spends time ... on the yacht Fortuna."
