Power boats will display flags from stem to stern. In addition, all yachts will properly display the SDYC burgee. If desired, boat owners may properly display the Ensign (Flag of the United States) but this will not be part of the scoring. Properly dressed yachts on each dock will be counted at 9am Sunday morning. The winning dock(s) and the reward will be announced during the ceremony as the coveted “Best Dressed Dock.”
