Title: Taiwanese boats Post by: ian on March 03, 2014, 11:55:14 AM Just for the memories ,
what's the latest news on the Taiwanese dragon boats in Vancouver?. Will they ever be seen again ? anybody have any photos or video from the Taiwanese races in Vancouver ? Title: Re: Taiwanese boats Post by: Creature on March 04, 2014, 10:11:02 AM I haven't heard anything new.
Last set of pics I saw were: http://www.dragonboatwest.net/index.php?topic=5228.0. (http://www.dragonboatwest.net/index.php?topic=5228.0.) There are a few vids in this YouTube feed: http://www.youtube.com/user/DragonBoatWest/videos. (http://www.youtube.com/user/DragonBoatWest/videos.) Haven't seen the boats recently, hopefully they're still being cared for. I think the closest festival (to Vancouver) with Taiwanese style boats is the Portland Rose Festival Dragon Boat Race (http://www.pksca.net/home.php?layout=51667 (http://www.pksca.net/home.php?layout=51667)). Done that one a few times in their old boats (replaced in 2013). A great way to get injuries if you jump in and paddle them like a BUK! |
