The Port of Toledo and Georgia-Pacific Toledo would like to invite all interested parties to participate to participate in our Annual Containerboard Boat Contest at the Port of Toledo Wooden Boat Show, August 17th, 2024

 

Your Mission: Use your imagination and creativity (following the rules of course) to build a seaworthy boat. This boat is not simply for looks. We will have a full-scale regatta style race. Each boat will travel approximately 100 yards to a buoy, make a turn around the buoy and race for the finish line. 

​

Each participant will receive a containerboard boat builder starter kit. The kit comes with 2- 5’X10’ sheets of Georgia Pacific containerboard, 1-18’ sticks of paper roll stock, registration and waiver sheet and a complete set of rules and regulations. The Boat Builder Starter Kits are available for pick up at the Port of Toledo Shop at 625 Bay Road, Toledo, Oregon, 7am to 3:30pm weekdays.  Participants can also their own materials.  For questions regarding kit pickup, call the Port Shop at 541-336-0222.
