Folklore was the theme for this year's Kon-Tiki raft building challenge, held at Zandvlei at the weekend. The scouting contest takes its name from the 1947 expedition led by Norwegian Thor Heyerdahl, who sailed on a wooden raft, named Kon-Tiki after an Inca god, across the Pacific Ocean from South America to the Polynesian islands. Pictured are the 1st Fish Hoek Sea Scout Troop's raft crew manoeuvring their Shrek-inspired craft into position.
Kon-Tiki is held annually at the sea scout base. Competing teams build a raft from drums, rope and poles and crews stay on the rafts for 24 hours.
