2007 Rain Gutter Regatta - Preparations

Pete was ready to defend his victory in the Tiger division of the annual Rain Gutter Regatta. So it was time to get cracking on building his boat. This year we ordered a boat for Sam too, so he could race in the sibling race.

First it was time for sanding. Poppy helped Sam work on his sanding technique. By the way, Poppy happens to be a shipbuilding engineer and engineering professor. So there will be no excuses if Sam does not create a seaworthy vessel.


Then it was time for painting the boats.


You will have to check back on Monday to see the results of the race!
