Families crowded along the Eureka Waterfront this Saturday morning to catch a glimpse of Santa at the annual Salty Santa Boat Parade, hosted by the Commercial Fishermen’s Wives of Humboldt.

The fleet of decorated boats treated waving spectators to honking renditions of Christmas classics while cruising around Humboldt Bay, as seen in the video above. A few local celebrities appeared alongside Santa and the Grinch, including Crabby, the Humboldt Crabs Baseball mascot.
