General Note
The nighttime flotilla of brightly decorated yachts started in 1971 when a group of 20 enthusiastic revelers took to the Intracoastal Waterway in Fort Lauderdale. Spurred by the continued popularity of that event the Winterfest festival was started and built around the boat parade in 1981.
