I know there's a pumpkin boat race in the US.. oregon I think. And im pretty sure one in canada as well :3 I stumbled upon content of one of the people who would participate talking about how they grow the pumpkins and pick the best ones for the race. Interesting stuff overall

There should be a modified class. Wherein a certain percentage of the weight can be physical mods, like a bow for reduced resistance. Oar locks, etc. No power, though.

And, a battle class. Last one floating wins.

pumpkin boat fight!
