What a cool event - Congrats on all your awards. This is quite a unique team-building and public outreach effort, plus it looks like awesome fun! Wish I lived close enough to see it next year. Thanks for the photo.

Yeah. It is a great public outreach event. We have a reputation for building good boats :D

Unfortunately this will be the last year the library is hosting it, so unless someone steps forward and takes it over this will be the last year for the races. It might also be the last year that the team competes in it because almost everyone who worked on the boat is graduating this year...

At least we went out with a bang with our best looking and most well-built boat of the three. Not to mention the fact that it didn't go down even with 12 holes in the floor. :cool:

Congrats guys! We, too, just won our sixth straight cardboard boat race today. However, our boats are mechanical/human hybrid.

It's awesome to see that another team does this!
