BOAT SCHEDULEThe Festival Boats will be running continuously beginning at 9:30AM and will go until 9PM. THIS YEAR WE AREN'T PROMISING A MIDNIGHT BOAT!!! We don't have our own dock, but there is a great public dock right down the hill at the Xechivoy park. Also, if there is too much wind, the boats won't travel at night. Better to come and camp out.
