Ships Ahoy

Posted by: David Bunch

We like our summer water sports such as skiing, wake boarding and jet skis, but how about this? Anyone willing to take the time to build a replica Viking Ship out of ice cream sticks, not to mention sailing the thing, has my vote for Sportsman of the year. But in this case, it does seem to be for a good cause.

The ice cream sticks used to make the ship were provided by Unilever's ice cream maker OLA and by children who collected discarded sticks around the world. McDonald, whose Sea Heart Foundation (www.seaheartship.com) helps provide leisure activities for children in hospitals, hopes to sail his Viking ship across the Atlantic next year.

Hey bMax, is this guy related to you? Tell you what, I'll join the crew for the Atlantic crossing if you will.
