Dragon boating simply put, is a boat of 20 paddlers, a drummer and a steers person, paddling to cross the finish faster than their competitors. The paddlers paddle in unison to a drummer's beat in a long, narrow boat decorated at bow and stern with a dragon's head and tail. It's a team sport in its purest form that encompasses the elements of power, speed, synchronization and endurance.
