On Friday, Class B tall ships from around the world sailed down the East River from Hell Gate Bridge to Gravesend Bay, Brooklyn.
The parade sets the stage for Saturday, when more than 30 tall ships from around the world will sail up the Hudson River from the Verrazzano Bridge to the George Washington Bridge.
Here are a few of the ships that strutted their stuff Friday, to the delight of passengers and shoreside visitors.
