BRYAN EATON/Staff photo. There were plenty of boaters going up and down the Merrimack River, here are three in front of the American Yacht Club in a view from the pier at Ring's Island in Salisbury. The weather for boating for the rest of the holiday weekend seems good except for some showers forecast for some time on Saturday.
