Have you ever seen those guys who are rowing indoors? Now that's very funny! :lol:
By the way, in a dragon boat we don't use an "oar" but a "paddle"... :wink:

Neat, Ancho! But certainly neither of those are in Barcelona?

In the first picture, it appears the another shell had already done the ice breaking. Or was it just fresh snow floating on the surface? I would think that ice would really chew up the hull of most shells — or even most wherries.
