It was anchors aweigh at the Jersey Shore Saturday as thousands of boaters took to sea in support of law enforcement and President Trump.
An estimated 2,000 watercraft joined “The Trump Law and Order Parade†as it set off from Toms River under a bright blue sky, most of them decked out in patriotic flags and banners — and bagpipers in some cases.
“It was awesome,†organizer Chris Molla told The Post. “I’m on cloud nine right now.â€
One speedboat carried seven flags that proclaimed “Police Lives Matter†and “Trump 2020: Keep America Great†as they whipped in the stiff salt breeze on Barnegat Bay.
Others — ranging in size from jet skis to cabin cruisers — flew American flags and “thin blue line†banners to honor fallen police officers.
Landlubbers waving Old Glory from a pier over the bay cheered the spectacle as hundreds of boats passed beneath the Henderson Memorial Bridge in Manahawkin.
