Housing: We have prepaid for two vacation houses located on Big Bay Creek near Edisto Marina. This is the only “transient”
accommodation available on Edisto Island. Your allocated cost for a room for the two nights (Monday and Tuesday) is $175 per
room payable to Classic Boat Rally. As this is as close as any other accommodations to Tuesday’s destination at Bohicket
Marina, we will return to Edisto by car Tuesday night for the second night here. Your payment of $175 is for the two nights.
In order for us to allocate rooms, we need to know how many rooms, how many people in each room, and an indication regarding
which house you would prefer. Your boat can tie up to the private dock in front of your house. Those not staying in these
houses can tie up at Edisto Marina Monday night (at a charge by the marina). Links

Dinner at Sunset Grille: You
will be on your own at this informal seafood restaurant. The seafood is excellent and the setting is quite beautiful as you
can look out the broad plate glass windows in a westerly direction overlooking the marina, the river and marsh and ultimately
watch the sun sink slowly over the horizon. Eat early or late. We will do the awards at about 6 PM. Sunset is around 8 PM.
As a courtesy to the restaurant we need a headcount:
