This year’s parade will start at 5:30 PM on Saturday, December 3^rd, 2022. The theme is Holiday Music. Come sea all of the mesmerizing light displays as the vessels travel down the waterway. The parade will begin between Wind River and Fortman Marina’s public pier. Boats will sail down the Alameda side of the estuary past Encinal and Oakland Yacht Clubs. They will then cross to the Oakland side and pass by the Port of Oakland and Scott’s Seafood. Finally, they will turn to pass Grand and Fortman Marinas on the way back to their start at Wind River. This is a judged event with over 35 entries. Captains from around our beloved Bay Area communities will be showing off their creative light displays to kick off the winter holiday season! Jack London Square is a great spot to catch the parade with a number of restaurants that harbor great views of the water. Last but knot least, monetary donations in support of Oakland Firefighters Random Acts and Alameda Community Food Bank can be made through the website. At Berschler Associates, PC, we are honored to be a part of the maritime community and delighted to share this event that fosters kinship and merriment.
