Beginning with its inaugural event in February 2006, the WesMex Regatta has earned the reputation of the premier small boat regatta of Banderas Bay. It is one of the most important youth sailing events of the year in all of Mexico and is one of two “Signature Regattas” of the Vallarta Yacht Club.
The International WesMex Regatta is hosted by Vallarta Yacht Club and sanctioned by the Mexico Sailing Federation, the Mexico Optimist Class Association (AMVCO), the ILCA Mexico Class Association and the iQFoil Class.
This year we expect to see a great participation as WesMex is part of the “Circuito Mexicano de Optimist 2025”. This is a qualifying event in the Optimist class for Mexican junior sailors who will represent their country in the 2025 international championships. It will also be a qualifying regatta for the “World Sailing” Youth World Championship (ILCA 6 Men's and Women's, C420 Men's and Women's).
