4:00pm - 5:00pm: Welcome to Sprat Bay and the Peter Island Resort and Spa! This is a beautiful spot and a high end resort. In addition, we have arranged for all our boats to be in the marina and at the dock for the night at a rate of just $60 per boat.

If racing is not for you, there will be plenty of other activities to choose from including a fun and adventuresome treasure hunt!
6:30pm - 8:30pm: Looks like it’s time for cocktails and dinner again followed by an awards ceremony from the days events. And perhaps, a little live music and dancing later on.
