AUSTIN - A bunch of sailors will be taking to the waters of Old Settlers Park this weekend in boats they are almost certain aren't seaworthy. Mostly, because the boats are made of cardboard. The annual Cardboard Regatta Boat Race challenges competitors to make ships out of simple supplies like cardboard, glue and tape. FOX 7's Nik Ciccone builds his own cardboard boat to test if he can sink or swim.
