Vessels participating in East End Seaport Museum‘s Blessing of the Fleet sailed back into the harbor on Saturday, reviving a time-honored North Fork maritime tradition.

Various religious leaders, residents and members of the NJROTC gathered at the Saylor Beach House dock on the sunny afternoon to bless the boats as they passed by.
