What was once the busiest freight port in the world recently held another freight hauling competition, but with a catch: all the boats were remote-controlled, had to fit in a 2’x2’x2′ box, and had to be 3D printed. The Red Hook Regatta was a race to see how many “shipping containers” (actually, brick sized pieces of foam) teams could ferry to “cranes” (guys with fishing poles dangling down from the pier) through the choppy waters of New York Harbor.
