The International Bathtub regatta is made up of a mess of buoyant, ahem, well, bathtubs. The bathtubs are made from scratch, decorated and designed by bathtub engineers (anyone can participate and build their own). These fascinating vessels make for an interesting contest to about 20,000 spectators. Sort of like a bathroom excursion. See how it all went down last week on August 15th. Video at break.
