Event Rules & Boating Etiquette
Please help us keep this a fun, safe, and respectful day for everyone:
Respect the Ramp, Quick launches only. Load your boat, move your trailer promptly, and keep the Lillian Boat Ramp clear for others.
Use Caution Around Other Boats Maintain safe distance while cruising and approaching the island. No wake near anchored boats or in shallow areas.
Raft-Up Safety Use plenty of fenders (bumpers). Tie lines securely but allow boats to move with the water. Approach slowly and communicate (VHF 72 or hand signals). Kids should wear life jackets.
