Powered by Yahoo! WeatherA flotilla of boats estimated at 400+ amassed in Punta Gorda off Gilchrist park in celebration of the A HARBOR HAPPENING. Both local and long distant cruisers came to enjoy the calm anchorage of the sandy idyllic park in downtown Punta Gorda.
Aerial flybys and photos were scheduled at 11:00 am.
The visiting yachtman will also have the oppertunity to participate in the “LIGHTING OF THE VILLAGE” at Fishermen’s Village pier front mall at the confluence of the Peace River and Charlotte Harbor. An estimated 1,000,000 lights will be lit to kick off the holiday season. Pipe bands, and live enterment will also be part of the merriment.
