2010 South African Concrete Boat Race
21st Edition
Victoria Lake, Germiston
September 18, 2010

On the 18th September the Inland Branch will hold their 21st Annual Concrete Boat Race Day at the Victoria Lake Club in Germiston, near Johannesburg.  The South African Boat Race has been held every year since 1990.


In 2009, a team from the University of Johannesburg (upper left) won the Student Construction Award.  The student's race was won by the University of Pretoria (upper right).  Teams from PPC Cement won the Industry Race (lower left) and the Ladies Race (lower right).

There was a new prize awarded in 2009 to the first boat that sank. This occurred in 10 seconds from the start of the first  race and went to the head of the engineering department at one of the universities (name withheld to protect reputation), but you can see the picture along with other photos and additional information here.
