The high seas adventures were at the Hannibal Aquatic Center Saturday, June 24, as 19 boats participated in cardboard boat races.

Youngsters enjoyed their time being skippers and first mates, navigating the boats they made through the water. Some of the boats were a little more seaworthy, and some of them sank right as the contestants got on board.

The cardboard boat races were sponsored by Hannibal Parks & Recreation.

The race came down to the wire, as the fastest boats competed in the last heat.

The winners were:

Fastest

First place: Prestan Schanbacher and Zane Lomax

Second place: Alex Arthaud and Patrick Arthaud

Third place: Jocelyn Clark and Andrew Clark

Best Dressed

First place: William Rolsen and Jordyn Schmelzle

Second place: Adyson Ryan-Davis and Chevelle Pope

Third place: Kael Viehmann and Gage Conrad

Titanic Award

First place: Jay Arnold and Calvin Biggs

Second place: Isaiah Fessenden and Hannah Fessenden

Third place: Terner Otten and Ben Schisler

Jenna McDonald, aquatics director at Hannibal Aquatics Center, reported a successful event and said the cardboard boat race will be tentatively scheduled for June 23 next year.
