Puerto Vallarta will host the 42nd edition of the Mexican Ocean Racing Circuit, MEXORC, from March 9-14 as part of the festivities taking place for its 100th anniversary. The destination is expecting to receive about 30 ocean-type sailboats ranging from 37 to 70 feet in length for this edition, each with an average of 12 crew members.
