Cardboard PDRacerBy David "Shorty" Routh
Every year there are cardboard boat regattas in various locations across the world. The rules are simple, you have to build it from just cardboard, 1 part glue, tape and paint. I needed to build a boat big enough to carry my entire Girl Scout troop, so I decided to make a 12' stretched PDRacer. It's name is "Ice Burgers" because we wanted it to look like a large iceberg.
