Steps for completing registration staring tomorrow at 9 a.m.:
- Fill out registration forms

You will be able to buy lunch boxes for the week at registration and we will provide every crew member with bracelets so they can enter for free to all dinner events. We will also sell dinner tickets for friends and family members.
Please make sure to attend all sponsored dinners (all week), this is the best way to show them gratitude and to foster their continuous involvement with our Class. Three very important notes on these events:
- On Sunday 03/07 the event/dinner/kick-off will take place at the Marival Residences and not at the Marina we plan to start at 19:30 hours
- On Tuesday 03/09 we will all board a fast catamaran to take us to Las Caletas for dinner and show, all catamarans will come back to the Marina after dinner (take something warm to cover up for the return trip)
- On Thursday ICON residences will host dinner and show in Puerto Vallarta, we will provide transportation leaving from the Marina and from the Marival resort and Marival Residences. This is a great occasion to get to know Puerto Vallarta!
All other events will be held at the Villa Copa México at Marina Riviera Nayarit except for the award ceremony that will be held close to the Club house and not at the Villa. Any changes will be posted on the bulletin board at the Villa Copa México. See events more
