Raft Building
Build it. Ride it. Try not to sink it.
About Raft Building
Put your teamwork, knot-tying, and engineering skills to the ultimate test! Raft Building is a classic, hilarious outdoor challenge where your group must work together to construct a vessel from scratch and then prove its seaworthiness. Will you sail across the water in triumph, or will you be going down with the ship?
