MEXORC / Vallarta Race Week

Feb 27 - Mar 6, 2010
Only two berths left!

MEXORC (Mexican Ocean Racing Circuit) series began in the 1970's, and is held every second year (following the San Diego to PV Yacht Race)... Vallarta Race Week is a similar event that occurs on alternate ('odd') years. Both events are fed with competitors arriving from California in the offshore Puerto Vallarta race, and boats coming up to Banderas Bay from Acapulco. Warm weather and great sailing make these winter events awesome!

J World will be offering sailors the opportunity to come join our team for a great learning and racing opportunity. Three coaches and six students will be racing on a J/130. We'll rotate positions regularly, so everyone aboard will get a chance to trim, to work the pit, and even to drive. The coaches will make sure that everyone gets a lot of personal attention, and you will come out of the program with a solid understanding about racing big boats in grand prix events.

The regatta is February 28 to March 6 and consists of a mixture of buoy races and distance races around Banderas Bay. The proposed schedule is:

Feb 28 - Distance Race (President's Cup)
Mar 1 - Windward/Leeward races
Mar 2 - Distance Race - Bahia Las Caletas
Mar 3- Lay Day
Mar 4 - Windward/Leeward races
March 5 - Distance Race - Marietta Islands
March 6 - Gold Cup Triangle

Space is limited! There are currently only two berths left. The cost is $1595 per person for the regatta. We are also able to offer a package option which includes accommodations for seven days (including food/drinks!) at the Marival resort for $1895 per person!

This event is tremendously popular and will sell out, so interested parties are encouraged to contact us quickly!
