Seven-year-old Connor Patton sits in his cardboard box or boat as 8-year-old Kaitlyn Conley, front, and Tyler Bean, 11, pass Connor in the "Mother Load" during the Great Salt Lake Yacht Club's 2009 Sailfest at the Great Salt Lake Marina on Saturday. Connor's boat or box was forced to retire before the completion of the race, and the "Mother Load" finished third. Connor's father is an aerospace engineer, but Connor says his father didn't help him in the design of his boat.
