Look, it's an NSRI 'buoy'. Karen Kennedy from NSRI Durban did a splendid job as the first marker that the competitors had to round during the Coca-Cola Cardboard Boat Race at the Durban International Boat and Lifestyle Show. Fourteen boats took to the water over the two days (two separate races) and only five boats managed to remain seaworthy completing the race over 150m. Pic: Sophie Thompson
