Prep sink in this island?

Hi,
I'm debating putting a prep sink in the island. Right now the main sink is not too far from the range. I'm thinking of putting prep sink behind the range for quick rinses between ingredients. However, in that location it may seem to close to main sink. Other idea is to just keep the 10ft island uninterrupted space for gatherings. I've also heard that it's useful to have a second sink during parties and gatherings. Thoughts or suggestions? The island overlooks the entire family room, with no wall separation. Thanks in advance!
