SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - A couple dozen vessels will glide across the San Diego Bay starting around noon Saturday in support of President Donald Trump's re-election campaign.

Parade participants will set sail starting at the Point Loma bait barge, cruise along Harbor Island towards Seaport Village and end in Coronado.

Nick Garcia, founder and CEO of Nitro Gun Co. in Carlsbad, is organizing the event.

The parade coincides with Trump's 74th birthday, June 14.

Around the same time, hundreds of people are expected to fill Waterfront Park along the harbor for a planned Black Lives Matter demonstration. The harbor side protest is one of a handful of demonstrations planned around the county Saturday, including North Park and Imperial Beach.
