Over 200 boats and 10,000 people will converge on the south end of Lake Union over the Fourth of July weekend for a celebration of wooden boats. In the spirit of CWB, where visitors have access to historic sailing and rowing vessels from the museum collection, this is a hands-on show. All vessels will have owners, builders or skippers available to share their experiences. Larger boats will invite visitors aboard; smaller boats will give rides. Classic rowboats can be rented, and steam and sail rides will be running non-stop. Visitors are guaranteed to get out on the water.
Boats at the Festival this year will include varnished wooden speedboats, dinghies, sail and power classics, fishing vessels, tugboats, steam launches, kayaks, canoes and more.
Due to construction, Lake Union Park will not stay open to the public for July 4th Fireworks viewing.
