Never saw this cool photo before, it was recognized by Guinness:

The largest raft of canoes and kayaks consisted of 1,902 boats and was achieved at the event "One Square Mile of Hope". The event was sponsored by the Central Adirondack Paddlers Society, and took place on Fourth Lake in Inlet, New York, USA.

Click Edit Post. Then click Go Advanced.

Then you can edit the title.

Good pic; pretty enough to put on a T.

I wonder what would happen if a big ol 30 foot glass boat made a pass at about 1/2 throttle....

That wake might make for something interesting!

Ha!

Cool photo Lake!

Looks like a big pile of "sprinkles" :D

Would have been fun shooting the photo up in the plane.

Speaking of the aerial photograph, the sponsors are raffling a cropped, framed & matted print of the photo. Looks even more abstract, very cool.

If you want to see it, just google: "One Square Mile of Hope".

Great pic! Only one problem, that's the boat ramp in Inlet that they are right in front of! It's going to be a long wait to launch or retrieve!
