This was an all military heat race between the marine corps band, a local navy contingency and the army ROTC group from a local college. The marines foundered right from the start and the navy's large superstructure kept them from moving forward due to the wind.
The marines flag still flying high are about to board and capture the navy vessel in an act of piracy. While the ROTC team finished afloat way way ahead of the navy and marines the excitement was here. The navy was capsized by the marauding marines but the marines did finish by swimming and dragging their sunken and water logged craft through the coarse.
And the other band member played the marine corp hymn upon finishing.
