In the realm of offshore sailing, the 37th Biennial Puerto Vallarta Race stands as a symbol of tradition, challenge, and camaraderie. Hosted by the San Diego Yacht Club (SDYC), this international event marks a milestone in the sailing calendar, attracting sailors and enthusiasts alike to the waters of the Mexican Pacific.

Scheduled to take place from February 22nd to March 1st, 2024, this race traces its lineage back to 1953, when it first carved its path from San Diego, CA to the sun-kissed shores of Puerto Vallarta. With 26 confirmed boats ready to participate in this oceanic odyssey, anticipation brims as sailors ready themselves for the daunting 1,000 nautical mile voyage.

At the helm of the event stand co-chairs Ben Mitchell and Karen Busch, seasoned organizers whose dedication ensures the seamless orchestration of this thrilling maritime spectacle.

The Puerto Vallarta Race is not merely a test of skill and endurance; it is a celebration of the maritime spirit that unites sailors across oceans. Each participant brings a unique blend of passion and prowess to the waters, forging bonds that transcend mere competition.

Beyond the thrill of the race itself, participants and their families can anticipate a jubilant awards ceremony at Velas Vallarta, where tales of triumph and adventure will be shared.

“There are lots of reasons why we have advertised in Vallarta Lifestyles for several years. One of them is that they know pretty well their target, because they know who are their readers and they adapt as much as possible the content and material that is offered. For these reasons they have a growing number of readers which is very important for us. Another reason is that many people  —including us— think that the magazine has been as a serious publication since its beginnings. Historically, Vallarta Lifestyles has known how to capture the audience and has done it pretty well."
