June 2025

The HarborOps Education Subcommittee invites all boaters to join us for Shared Harbor Day on Sunday, June 22, aboard the historic Fireboat, John J Harvey!

This annual event is an opportunity for recreational and commercial mariners to come together and share their perspectives on safety across New York Harbor and our shared waterways.

We will navigate to hot spots of New York Harbor and cruise the Hudson and East Rivers with other boaters to discuss areas where the courses and needs of our many different types of vessels converge. Our guest speakers will share valuable insights and we’ll enjoy the historic fireboat and it’s powerful water display!

Pier 66, Hudson River Park

11am to 12 noon
Dockside program and welcomes, free and open to all!
