There will be a new award for Boats this year. Nightmare in Strathmere has been around for quite some time. It means different things to different people, but there have always been traditions of last minute, off-color crazy ideas that rarely win awards, but are truly the heart of our celebration. We will be giving an award for the boat that most exemplifies the “Spirit of Nightmare”.
