If you cherish the beauty of old boats with all their character and history, then this is an event not to be missed! A fleet of vintage boats (25+ years old) will grace our harbor in a regal parade of vessels. Announcing of the parade is done so it is semi-broadcast throughout the harbor. Join us for the Pier Party at The Shipyard in Boothbay Harbor. Enjoy appetizers, drinks (full bar), view the vintage boats tied up at the docks, groove to some great live music, and new this year - enjoy a gathering of a vintage cars at the shipyard!
