SikaFlex QDBBC
(Quick and Dirty Boat Building Contest)
Door County Maritime Museum - Sturgeon Bay Wisconsin
Contestants have 2 sheets of 1/4 inch plywood, 6- 2x2 boards, and lots of
SikaFlex adhesive to build a boat in under 4 hours. Decorating is the next day and
there is no time limit. After completion, all contestants must take their boat
around a water course. Scores from the building time and course time are them
totaled to determine the winners! All materials are donated by Sika Industries and
Palmer Johnson Yachts. Unfortunately, we didn't get pictures of the boat building.
I think we were enjoying watching too much.
