PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. — President Barack Obama and his family cruised the waters off their Florida Panhandle hotel Sunday, offering a portrait of a family on vacation to boost a region struggling with the economic damage from the nation’s worst oil spill.

The Obamas boarded the 50-foot Bay Point Lady on a rainy morning, the second and final day of a weekend getaway during which the president assured residents that his administration would not forget the region even after a broken oil well in the Gulf of Mexico was completely plugged. The family returned to Washington on Sunday afternoon.
