As with all things boating this event is WEATHER DEPENDENT, and it is up to YOU AS THE CAPTAIN OF YOUR BOAT to make the decision on if you will be participating based on the conditions that day.  Should the weather forecast call for excessively rough or otherwise unsafe conditions we will cancel, or reschedule.

Be sure to follow ALL rules for social distancing/passengers allowed and... HAVE FUN/ spread the word!

If you don’t have access to a boat, or don’t want to be on one... NO PROBLEM! You can watch from any of the beaches we will be passing, or charter one for the day.
