Title: DBA boats swamped - desperately in need of bailing Post by: Sundragon on January 13, 2008, 02:41:56 PM Does anyone on here know anyone involved with the DBA or the Taiwanese Dragon Boat Festival? If so could you please let them know that there is bailing required urgently down at their docks. A small group of us went past their boats this morning while we were out in the outrigger and saw that the DBA dragon boats and Taiwanese boats are completely full of water. My small crew of paddlers were already cold and tired and didn't feel they could even put a dent in the huge volume of water in the boats but I thought I better let someone know. Maybe a few of us could band together and go down and bail these beautiful boats?
