Boat Regatta...

McKay's math class had a boat regatta, it was so cool to watch!
They had to calculate weight, mass, etc. and build a boat out of cardboard and plastic. Then they went to the local high school's pool to see if it would survive.

McKay had a blast-

About 2 seconds after I took this picture, McKay shoved his boat partner into the water,
luckily his friend thought it was funny!

Even more fun was destroying their creations-
