Harbor Queen, a 65-foot boat, is celebrating its 40th anniversary cruising the waters in and around Annapolis.

In that time, the boat, which was recently renovated, has hosted 2.6 million people including almost 800,000 fourth graders for history tours and more than 50 brides, according to a news release. About 300,000 bags of popcorn were served on Harbor Queen.

"Harbor Queen is iconic," said Debbie Gosselin, president and owner of Watermark, a water tour company that owns the boat, in the release. "She is the centerpiece of our maritime hospitality family."

Harbor Queen sails on daily excursions annually from March to mid-November.
