Harbor Island's 48th Annual Blessing of the Fleet
The United States Coast Guard Auxiliary Flotilla 7-5, with support from the Village of Mamaroneck Harbor Master, is hosting its 48th Annual Blessing of the Fleet on Monday, July 4th. Come to the West Basin at Harbor Island Park at 12 noon for the Parade of Ships. Vessels of all shapes and sizes are festively decorated by mariners who parade in front of a reviewing stand to receive a blessing from local clergy, and are judged in hopes of winning prizes supplied by local merchants.
