VOYAGE OF THE VIPOR

VOYAGE OF THE VIPOR Tanner Clark and Brandon Whipple of Vermillion navigate the Vipor through the course during a heat of the 2009 Cardboard Boat Races at Lake Yankton last Saturday. The vessel met a watery end, breaking up at mid-ship and sinking into the lake's waves. However, the Vipor wound up winning second place in the Titanic Award division for most dramatic sinking. The races were sponsored by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Yankton Motorsports LLC and the Yankton Press & Dakotan. (Kelly Hertz/Yankton Media, Inc.)
