 | | For this is Windjammer Days, a celebration of the age of sail, held annually the last week of June. |
 | | Originally a one-day event featuring a few windjammers, it has grown to a two-day extravaganza, which includes parades, concerts, sporting events and an auction as well as the fleet of majestic windjammers complemented with impressive military vessels. |
 | | First held on July 10, 1963, the original Windjammer Day was conceived "to re-live and honor the colorful days of sail, their wooden ships and iron men." The 1963 event coincided with the 200th anniversary of shipbuilding in the Boothbay Region. |
