I’ll Drink To That: Boats Made Out Of Beer Cans Set Sail In Darwin


The annual Beer Can Regatta was held in Darwin over the weekend, with boats held above the waterline by nothing but empty tins of brew floating off a beach in the Top End, as cool as you like.

It’s the most Australian of all festivals, this. According to a report by the ABC there’s everything from sausage sizzles to thong-throwing.

The most impressive boat by far at the event this year was a beer can barge floated offshore that, in the shot we see, has about 10 people standing around having a drink. Best. Boat. Ever.
