A MOST CREATIVE trophy xxx

secret weapons.....

Congratulations to Terry, Darren and Michael for an incredible effort designing, creating and racing the GSI 001 craft. Thankyou too to Caroline for a fibre art Sea Dragon figurehead! 
The creativity in this craft was outstanding and created much admiration, joy and conversation amongst the crowd! Bubble machine, sea shanties and even a V8 sound effect certainly entertained and shocked the judges at the starting line.....
The GSI team were congratulated on their ingenuity with the hand operated water wheels,and certainly looked like sure winners at the start of the race. Our team was the only team to properly read the rules, and to finish in third place was truly remarkable in the ideallic settings amongst the tall ships! We were later excited to hear that the GSI 001 also WON the most creative craft award!

Well done to the passionate team, and thankyou to the sculptors who came to cheer and enjoy the festival. More images and video can be found on our facebook page.
