Saturday's parade was just one of a number of events planned by boaters across the country to support the president in his 2020 run. Other similar events, including a car parade that ended tragically in Portland, Oregan, have been planned in recent weeks.
Farther south on Saturday, the City of Red Wing, Minnesota said a large Bikers for Trump rally was expected to be held across the river in Hager City, Wisconsin.
City officials expected 1,000 bikers and 200 boaters to take part in the Saturday afternoon event.
