The conference dinner will be aboard the Destiny, newest luxury yatch on the Hudson run by Smooth Sailing Celebrations.  Boarding will take place at Newport Marina immediately across from the Westin Hotel.  The Destiny is Coast-Guard-certified to hold up to 400 guests.

Upon boarding, guests will ascend to the rooftop decks for cocktail hour. There are 2 rooftops: one is covered and one is completely uncovered. They both have skirted bench seating, plus chairs on the covered deck and tables & chairs on the uncovered deck.  After cocktail hour,  guests will desend to the formal dining deck. There is an elevator should you need it.  After dinner, guests can dance, sightsee, and enjoy their unique yachting experience together.
