Sept 28, 2010: Chocolate Boat
Rub a dub dub, two men in a tub,
And I firmly believe they’re daft. Not metal or wood, as a sane man should, They used chocolate to build their craft. There's a video of the launch on BBC, but I won't link to it because you have to watch a 29 second commercial, just to see 28 seconds of break the champagne bottle and dump the boat in the water, with no real information. Anyway, one of the two guys owns a chain of chocolate stores, and according to Arbroath, won a bet by building it. It's flat bottomed, tipsy as hell, and neither the engine nor sail are chocolate.

That took place in Concarneau, France.
55 km south of my place in Britanny. And they say that they are planning on a 12-meter (40 feet) for 2012.

Congratulations Shel. You have the most freakishly skewed intellect of anyone on the Cellar, and that's saying something.

I have been told by many that I'm a damn funny guy, but I can't begin to approach Sheldon's strata. Dayum funny, bro. Laughed long and deeply at that one.
