DONZI wins the 2008 Cardboard Regatta Championship on Sylvan Lake, Rome City Indiana!

Our best friends, Matt and Billie Loraine, son Eddie captained the Donzi to Victory on July 5, 2008:thewave:. Out of a field of 10 cardboard boats, 'The Duece' Donzi won it's place on top of the heap. The way it works is you are given as much cardboard as needed to build your craft, 1 roll of duct tape, and 1 hour. You are allowed to use a single ended paddle for your power. Leave the seawall, go around the floating princess, and the first one back to the seawall wins. Captain Eddie smoked:boat: the field by over 10 boat lengths:beer:!

Thanx Don and everyone! It is pretty good cheap entertainment. with the different teams, you get different styles. The Donzi (maybe call it ZC model for Z-Cardboard???:confused:) was a flat-bottom design set up to handle flat water. The super-vee's and 'cats' didnt stand a chance:eek: on 'The Duece'. Last years attempt didnt do so well, she was underpowered:hangum: (Eddie's younger sister Kelli) and some teenagers kind of swamped her out of the race early. So while last years attempt was a learning curve, this years attempt is the reason for the name mentioned above.
