Two architecture students take to the water Saturday at the Cardboard Classic Regatta on
Pine Lake. Their paper pyramid was one of about 20 cardboard boats constructed for the final
project in Architecture 236.
Students-turned-sailors test designs
in first Cardboard Classic Regatta
By Ann Lowe
Staff Reporter
Cardboard boats? Dinghy idea, but
some UNL architecture students proved
Saturday that wet cardboard floats
and even makes a seaworthy ship.
About 35 students took to rough
waters on Lincoln's Pine Lake in the
Cardboard Classic Regatta. They were
testing their final projects for Archi
tecture 236 honest-to-goodness boats
made of boxes, cartons and cardboard.
The ships took unusual shapes. There
were, among others, a banana split, a
Washington Monument, a Starship

Enterprise and a Manhattan Island
complete with scale-model skyscrap
ers. Professor Scott Wieskamp said the
only requirements were that the boats
be made of cardboard and they held at
least one person.
"Everybody has this pre-conceived
idea of what a boat looks like," Wies
kamp said. He said architecture stu
dents need to give up old notions and
create ideas of their own. The boat
project seemed to be a good exercise,
he said.
The students had the assignment for
about three weeks. They drew up plans
and submitted scale models to Wies
kamp. Then they took over a lab in the
501 Building and started to work on
their cardboard craft.
"They've spent some all-nighters in
the last week or two," Wieskamp said.

They spent a lot of money, too as
much as $150 for one boat, he said.
About 100 students, parents and
friends gathered at the home of Al and
Mary Sperry, 6241 Eastshore Dr., to
watch the regatta. Some students were
still tinkering with their boats tap
ing and caulking seams, adding paint,
making sure their vessels were water
tight. Then the races began. With cheers
from the crowd and blasts of an air
horn, the boats were launched two-at-a-time
from the Sperrys' pier. The course
seemed easy enough just once
around a buoy about 50 feet out. But
heavy winds and unforseen design prob
lems caused trouble for a few of the
sailors. Some boats were blown back
ward; others tipped or sprang leaks.
Some boaters gave up their cardboard
oars and paddled by hand. Others
abandoned ship and jumped into three
feet of cold water to push their boats to
the finish.
Some had better luck. Kian Shamloo
and Dan Bernhardt had the winning
time of 1:05 in their Loch Ness Monster.
Mike Harvey and Jeff Sellentin came in
second on the U.S.S. Manhattan with
1:22. Brent Luetchen and Dan Mullin
took third wth 1:53 on the Iceberg.
Wieskamp said the race results won't
affect the students' grades.
"They've all put in a lot of work," he
said. "They'll all probably get pretty
good grades."
