The procession is led by a model boat, The Black Prince, carried 'shoulder high' by ratings from the nearby HMS Raleigh. Others on the parade include town criers, morris dancers, musicians, shanty singers and local villagers and children, many wearing the traditional colours for the parade of red and white.
