A CREW’S EYE VIEW OF THE WINTERFEST BOAT PARADE

The crew of M/Y Freedom teamed up with the Coral Ridge Yacht Club for an unforgettable experience as part of the Seminole Hard Rock Winterfest Boat Parade in Fort Lauderdale. This festival of lights on the waterways is the traditional annual kickoff to the South Florida holiday season in December. M/Y Freedom was moved to the yacht club for decorating, where the crew chose a red, white, and blue neon theme to go along with the name of the vessel. “We had a blast!” reports Chief Stew Julie Emmons.
