Happy 4th Of July

Happy Independence Day
Did you know that Independence Day, July 4th has been a federal holiday in the United States since 1941?  However, the tradition of Independence Day celebrations actually go as far back as the 18th century and the American Revolution (1775-83). In June 1776, representatives of the 13 colonies then fighting in the revolutionary struggle weighed a resolution that would declare their independence from Great Britain. On July 2nd, the Continental Congress voted in favor of independence, and two days later its delegates adopted the Declaration of Independence, a historic document drafted by Thomas Jefferson. From 1776 until the present day, July 4th has been celebrated as the birth of American independence, with typical festivities ranging from fireworks, parades and concerts to more casual family gatherings and barbecues.
At Del Rio's Yachts we would like to take this opportunity to wish you and your family a very Happy Independence Day!  Whether you're grilling in the park/backyard, catching some much needed rest or enjoying the fireworks displays in the City, please remember that we're one of those options that you can take advantage of also, to celebrate your special occasions with us.  Celebrate your own "independence" from the hustle and bustle of every day city life by taking a relaxing cruise with those who mean the most to you or your colleagues that you'd love to get some down time with.  Thanks for your past support and we're looking forward to serving you in the near future!
