The weather held out perfectly for a day of creativity and laughter at the 51st Annual Anything That Floats Regatta in Mechanicville, NY! Over the weekend, various teams launched their custom-built "boats," attempting to navigate a quarter-mile stretch of the Anthony Kill to reach the city dock. Which of these unique vessels was your favorite? Take a look at our gallery below!
Having watched this event for several years, I always find myself thinking I could easily build a successful craft as we wait for the start. However, seeing the brave people actually take the plunge makes me realize one important thing: I really don't like being wet.
What about you—do you believe you could construct something capable of floating that entire quarter-mile journey?
