A U.K. paper has named a P.E.I. boat race between the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge as one of the top 10 moments of their marriage.

The Western Daily Press cited the Dragon Boat race, on Dalvay Lake on the North Shore of P.E.I., as the first big moment of the marriage after the balcony kiss on the wedding day.

The race took place in July 2011, during the royal couple's first official overseas trip. Prince William's team edged out the Duchess's by just a few metres.

Other moments cited by the paper include the couple celebrating a gold medal during the London Olympics, and the births of their two children.
