Great Urban Race – Tie a Bowline with a Blindfold

The Great Urban Race – Chili Pepper was a secret location in the Great Urban Race.  The final round or elite 8 had to decipher a puzzle to find the boat, then tie a bowline with a blindfold.  Easy if you are a sailor, not so easy otherwise. Two teams did it in seconds (sailor and firefighter), most teams completed with partner instruction, and one team could not finish the task.

These guys were good

Great teamwork by these two, the dockside smartphone sure helped.

Is that knot secure?

One team stuck, the other off to the next secret location.

The other team didn’t have time to help out the struggling team, but they gave it their all.

Thanks for the help the friendly volunteers
