Fireworks, fishing, raft races, water skiers, live music … and of course, lots of people packed Henry C. Chambers Waterfront Park during the first four days of the 66th annual Beaufort Water Festival. Still to come are the Lowcountry Supper, Friday’s rock concert, the Commodore’s Ball and the Blessing of the Fleet.
