ONE person was hospitalised for intoxication, another fell overboard and more than 30 were treated by paramedics.
But with a million people descending on Sydney Harbour on Saturday, NSW Ambulance have called it a crowd success.
Now they are just asking event-goers to keep up the stellar behaviour.
Paramedics treated 38 people and transported 17 to hospital during Saturday's Fleet Review festivities, Chief Superintendent Joel Bardsley said on Sunday.
Among those hospitalised was a man, aged about 50, who fell from a moored vessel at Rose Bay and was later rescued by NSW Water Police.
Chief Supt Bardsley said most of the treatments involved slips, trips and falls, particularly during the evening fireworks.
"With one million people moving from one spot to another, people are going to have mishaps," he said in a statement.
"When you have as many people in the city as we did, and 38 people being the only number of event-related incidents, you can certainly say the crowds were there for all the right reasons and behaved themselves," he said.
Chief Supt Bardsley asked people to continue with the same safe approach on Sunday, as thousands land at Sydney Olympic Park for the NRL Grand Final, two One Direction concerts and the EB Games Expo.
With temperatures heading into the 30s, he urged everyone to bring plenty of water.
"Bring your sunscreen and your floppy hat, look after each other and behave so that everyone can have a good day," he said.
An extra 250 paramedic shifts, 36 senior supervisors and 30 extra triple zero (000) call takers have been rostered on in preparation for the long-weekend's festivities.
