: I have been highly amused by all the quiping on the launching ceremonies.
: Being Mormon using neither wine or coffee, perhaps root beer or sprite
: could be acceptable substitues. Ok, I'll even go in for plain ole grape
: juice. I definetly agree that whacking the boat, made of thin wood, with a
: bottle would definitely cause a little pre-stress on the hull not to
: mention a good dent.
: If I use juice, I'll put it in a balloon. Since a whole group of scouts may
: do this together, you can imagine the possible outcome if we have a whole
: bunch of balloons filled with juice. Gene
Be careful: grape juice might stain clothing, etc. It would seem appropriate to contexualize the beverage by using whatever the scouts' favorite (legal and age & religiously appropriate) beverage is.
I agree, too, that breaking a bottle of anything over the bow of a boat is a bad idea. That's why the only mention of it has been to caution against it. (My original post said "pour" not "break"....) Not only is it bad for the boat, but it would also leave broken glass all over the launch site. Besides, there was something in the directions about doing an end-pour.........
