The ticket includes access to the regatta’s social activities and catered meal events. Skipper registration for the Open PHRF includes your Competitor Ticket. \nKYC Members \nTo have your ticket member charged for this event\, please apply the coupon code: KYCMemberCharge (case sensitive) at the checkout page. Copy or write this code down\, as you won’t see it on the checkout page. \n\nDietary Restrictions \nKYC is happy to accommodate any dietary restrictions.

Therefore\, vessel registration is required and may be completed here at no cost. All competitors\, including skippers\, for the U35 must register as competitors here regardless of vessel ownership. \nSkipper & Crew Registration (Open PHRF)\nAll participants in the Commodores Cup Open PHRF Regatta are required to register as competitors.
