South African Scouter Peter La Roux (listen to an interview here) posted videos of this year’s Kon Tiki event on his Ropes and Poles Blog.
If you aren’t familiar with Kon-Tiki the whole idea is that Scouts groups build rafts, float them on a lake and participate in a number of contests and competitions (including staying overnight on the rafts)
Hennie Hamman, the manager at Arrowe Park, has compiled three videos from hours of footage taken at KonTiki 2014. Here they are- firstly, site preparation and raft construction, followed by the rafts seen by helicopter and from Arrowe Park, and finally the closing ceremony. Altogether, this is three-quarters of an hour of video, and gives a good feeling of what being at KonTiki is like.
My favorite is this one featuring aerial views of the event –
