Man crosses 1000 miles in flimsy cardboard boat
A. R. Patterson of Virginia completed a 1000 mile voyage along the intracoastal waterway in a 15 foot cardboard boat powered by a 10 horsepower outboard. He spent about three weeks at sea with most time in port for repairs and used nearly 10 gallons of rubber cement to fix damage from logs and snags. Patterson says the voyage proves the value of cardboard packing material and plans no similar trip soon.
