The 41st Annual Swim-In and Military Vehicle Gathering attracted 235 vehicles, with participants driving from as far away as Western Australia and Queensland.
Khaki Vehicle Enthusiasts secretary and public relations Jan Thompson said the low river level forced a change of location for the water aspect but otherwise all went well.
Numbers were similar to last year although lower than the record of 273 set in 2018.
The Friday night 40th anniversary celebration proved popular while spectators came out to watch Saturday's parade.

Committee member Sam King, of Corowa, said 43 vehicles took part in Thursday's excursion to Howlong, which made its mark on the town.
"The school really loved it and I'm certain that the bakery did too," he said.
"All the school kids had a wonderful time, a lot of the people allowed them to sit in the vehicles."
Ms Thompson said "only one" motorbike broke down during the motorcycle rally that highlighted the Year of the Military Motorcycle theme, with 2021 to focus on jeeps and the RAAF.
She praised the support of Federation Council and Ball Park Caravan Park, the event's base since it began, and encouraged more people to join in next year.
"You don't have to have a military vehicle to be classed as a participant, you could just have an interest in army vehicles, that's quite OK," she said.
