Nearly a dozen members of the Moorings Yacht Club participated in a Commemorative Boat Parade the Saturday before Memorial Day. Boat owners and their friends patriotically decorated their boats before making their way along the same route as the annual Christmas Boat Parade.

Residents waved from homes along the waterways surrounding the Moorings community, as well as from the small gathering of viewers at Compass Cove, where the boats turned for their return trip. The parade was initiated last year, when the pandemic had forced the cancellation of traditional Memorial Day commemorative events at the Moorings Yacht and Country Club.
