On the initiative of Captain Jo, this first edition of the Christmas special boat light parade brought together more than fifteen decorated ships which delighted a large number of visitors.
Within the organization, the managers of day charter companies and chandlery stores: Captain Jo, Paper boat charter, Love Boat, Blue pelican, Caribbean marines, Captains Sup, Funseaker, Oceane boat charter, Rainbow boat, Tropical boat, Sxm Boat rental, Island Water World, and Île Marine, which were joined by several boaters in a typical Christmas spirit. The first edition of the Christmas Boat Party was made possible thanks to the sponsorship of the Saint-Martin Tourist Office and the Metimer association. The participating boats were adorned with their prettiest Christmas decorations to dazzle an audience gathered en masse in Marigot, the arrival point of the parade.
Indeed, the procession of boats launched the pretty light parade in Grand-Case this Saturday, December 23 around 19 p.m. to reach Marigot around 19:30 p.m. On board the last boat, Santa Claus loaded with gifts for the children who were impatiently waiting for him on dry land. More than a hundred Christmas gifts were distributed for the occasion in the Christmas Village organized by the Community, making the light parade of boats even more magical in the eyes of the population. Pleasantly surprised by the enthusiasm generated by the 1st Christmas Boat Party and the scale it was able to have last Saturday, the organizing team intends to do it again next year by improving the concept even further, for the most great pleasure for all. _VX
