WE ARE HOSTING OUR ANUAL BOAT PARADE AND YOU’RE INVITED

Please accept our Pride Invitation to join Knickerbocker Sailing Association’s 26th annual Rainbows on the Hudson boat parade. Saturday, June 25th at 1100. We gather each year behind Lady Liberty for lunch and a swim, then sail/power/parade in a line up the Hudson from the Battery to USS Intrepid and back to South Street SeaPort. This year Thrillist and Hertiage of Pride have both listed our event, and spectators will be many. As are crew aboard! National Geographic will feature it in a new docu-series on World Pride Events. Get your vessel her proper 15 minutes of fame!

Please join us, fly some color (we’ve got links, and extras are plenty), slip out for a parade before your day sail, celebrate inclusiveness and allyship, with your ship!

This event is free to join, free to register (or not), and free to help facilitate. Bring your own crew, or let us know you can host one or two! Monitor VHF 69 the day of!

Donations suggested for each participant are individual and private, and benefit only the Ali Forney Center directly.

Please message me or ask here on the thread for any extra details! Thanks to all who have joined us in the past!

Fascinating turmoil on high seas trade routes!

A supplier of ceramics to Bed Bath and Beyond reports paying $67,000 for a single 40’ container, where $2,500 was standard before the backlog.
