WHERE AND HOW SHOULD WE RAFT UP? Please form lines in rows parallel to the shore. Make sure to leave room for Water Patrol and Emergency Personnel to pass between the boats.

HOUSEBOATS: Houseboats must tie on the shore. They can not anchor or tie in rows with the other boats due to the size and movement that could be caused by wind.
