Our next practices are Tuesday and Wednesday, but I probably won't get pictures until the actual event day. Basically it's a long skinny wooden boat (think a really long canoe!) with 20ish paddlers, split evenly on each side of the boat, and a drummer (to keep the pace of the paddle strokes) and a steerperson in the back with another paddle that steers.
Here's the results of a google image search: http://images.google.ca/images?um=1&...q=dragon+boats
Unfortunately, ours don't have the cool dragon heads on them lol
