Kwiki Boat – Boats built by spectator-sailors on site. These magnificent crafts will be put together using a kit containing the necessary materials and tools. There is no time limit—just finish by the start of your race. All material will be supplied in kits. No other material may be used in the construction of the Kwiki boats. Paddles, oars, or other means of propulsion are supplied if needed. (No motors please!)
Kiddie Kup – Kids aged 5 through 12 years will participate on a special shortened, shallow-water course. Participation rather than competition will be emphasized, with a prize for each contestant.
BOAT AND CREW SIZE
Boats must be somewhere in between a doll’s bathtub and the Titanic in size. However, the maximum crew size is 10.
