Staying afloat in Mr. Chute's Design class
When the rider falls out, the boat is pushed to the side so the
paddler can climb back in.
He's still paddling!
Look at those paddles ... there's a spare set! Now that's planning.
This boat has great looks but, sadly, a faulty design.
Simple but very functional.
And they're off .... or rather "in!"
The keel is proving its worth.
Slow but steady.
I'm winning!!!!
Best time overall!
Champions!
Gracious in defeat.
Final trials of the boats that won the earlier heats.
Oh dear ... the cardboard has become waterlogged.
Jack is now riding on his and Andrew's boat!
Another boat submerges into becoming a submarine but still the
paddler goes on!
I'm definitely sinking!!!
Going down.
Well ... so it's a sub with a keel! ... only half a length to
go.
And here's Jack at the finish line ... the guy who refused to
quit!
Hey ... it's worth getting wet for.
Grand champions
The Grade 9 class also designed boats. Mr. Chute took pictures
of those races.
Ms. Dussiaume was there and said those races were excellent!
