I'm not sure exactly what the boat situation was, as I was on the shore in Center Harbor, but there seemed like a lot of them. The crowd on shore seemed bigger than it had been in many years. The town band (7 - 9 concert) sounded very good. The fireworks were OK, nothing really awesome but several pretty displays. Of course with age and experience I find I have become harder to impress.
Dewey's hasn't opened yet (supply problems) so no ice cream.
