6- Registration document and Communication :

The registration of crews for the Armor Cup is done in several stages and the number of crew accepted depends on the available fleet:

1. Pre-registration takes place in December: at the close of pre-registration, the organization selects the retained crews and puts the other crews on the waiting list.
This is the Major stage which definitively closes the list of crews.

2. Registration for the regatta (navigation package) takes place in January with a fixed settlement commitment date at the beginning of March, if crews withdraw, the organization frees up space for crews on the waiting list.

3. The crew registration (catering package) is done in March with a fixed settlement commitment date in early May.
