Go 4th on the River
*(Choreographed audio link coming soon!)*
The Port of New Orleans will bring out the
General Roy S. Kelley fireboat again this year with its
famed water show with plumes of red, white, and blue fountains
from 6:30 - 7 pm.
Built in 1994, the General Kelley was used by the Port
of New Orleans to fight fires, give tours, and conduct
search-and-rescue missions on the Mississippi River.
The General Kelley is 95 feet long and 16 feet wide
with a 7 foot draft. It seats 24 and typically has a crew of
three.
