    Truly! Who wants to be a millionaire, when for a mere $50, you can have sailboats like these?! This race is awesome.

    • All boats shall be constructed with materials of a total fair market value below $50. Allowances shall not be made for generosity. (If someone sells you a boat worth $9,000,032 for $1 it may not enter the race) In general use garage sale values for the components that make up your craft.
    • Boats may not be powered by means other than wind. (Energy storage mechanisms, motors, rockets, and nuclear power plants are not allowed.)
    • Boats will be disqualified if the Judges feel it’s too dangerous.
