Great News for Hobie® Skippers.
We all know that sometimes it is hard to lock in a crew for a worlds event with such short notice and with the requirement to register on-line and provide crew details and passport numbers. In some cases crews might not have a passport so we have made an update on the official entry form to allow for simpler entry.
If you have your crew’s details then please enter them as advised.
However, if you are presently unsure of your crew’s details but still want to take advantage of the early entry pricing, please fill in their details with “TBA”. You then have until March 29 to confirm your crew’s details with Hobie to allow for the acquisition of official letters of invitation to assist with your Chinese visas. In most cases visas require as little as 7 days for processing, however some countries can take up to 4 weeks.
We trust this will make things easier and we look forward to seeing you on the water at the 21st Hobie 16 Worlds!
