Locals lined up along the banks of the Elizabeth River in Downtown Norfolk for the 1st Annual Anything that Floats but a Boat Race. This was the first year the organizers at Harborfest presented this event. Contestants had to build a raft out of spare parts and absolutely no boat parts. The race teams would then have to race around 30+ yards to reach the finish line.
There were two race divisions, an 8-person and a 4-person heat. Team Metromix had to be part of this event! Our 8 person raft stayed afloat as we paddled our way through the race. In the end, we came home with the 1st Place 8-Person Division and 3rd Place 4-Person Division awards.
Everyone had a blast as they paddled, rambled, floated, or just drifted to the finish line to the cheers of everyone gathered at Town Point Park.
