This was another fun cub scout event. I had never heard of a Raingutter Regalia, but it was pretty much a pinewood derby with homemade boats. Anyway, the construction of such things should never be left up to a boy's mother. I made his sail way too big, and it was by no means well-balanced. Nolan's boat kept tipping over and he didn't win any of his races. After the racing was done and the winner was declared, we clipped the sails and glued on some rocks for weights and then it sailed right past the winning boat in an unofficial heat. Too little, too late for Nolan. He does NOT like to lose anything! Time for another family home evening about good sportsmanship...
