The Teepwells, Nick Teeple and Ashley Croswell, fight to keep their cardboard duct tape boat afloat in the final event of the annual races. It was a free for all that saw 16 of the 22 entries put their boats back in the Rainy River and literally try and sink one another. As was the case with almost all 16 the Teepwells did not stay afloat for long. Please see all the Railroad Daze pictures under Photos/RR Daze 2010

Great ride!
