2019 is the second year they have included a giant inflated duck as part of the Festival of Sail. Not sure why we need a giant duck, it’s here anyway.

I think we need to check the map…
One of the more unusual sights at the 2019 Festival of Sail.
The Ones With Sails…
The 2019 Festival of Sail was somewhat disappointing due to the lack of the grander tall ships. This year there were only two true tall ships, the U.S. Brig Niagara and the S/V Denis Sullivan. They were joined by the smaller vessels, Abbey Road, Appledore V and Gerhard Folgero.

Non-Sailing Vessels
Although it’s named the Festival of Sail, there are also a few vessels that do not sport sails.
