(The only requirement is that the difference between the heaviest and the lightest dragon boat used in the same race should not be more than 5 kilograms.) - Since modern dragon boat races only have medium dragons (20-26 people) and small dragons (10-12 people), and there will be no big dragon races (50 people in one boat), and only the fishermen keep the big dragon races as an event, so many of the old customs and taboos are still preserved in the big dragon races. To the fishermen, winning a championship in a dragon boat race, especially the Grand Dragon Race, is a sign of good weather in that particular year. - The so-called dragon boat is actually a medium dragon boat (20-people) or a small dragon boat (8-people) fitted with a dragon head and a dragon tail. It is a stopgap measure to break the taboo of women's rowing in dragon boats. Nowadays, there are very few dragon boat races in Hong Kong, and only Sha Tin District still maintains the Dragon Boat Festival. (Note: A woman's dragon boat is a dragon boat, but a phoenix boat is really fitted with a phoenix's head and tail.) - If there is a "big dragon" race (i.e. a dragon boat with 50 passengers), it is necessary to have a big dragon moored at the edge of the fairway to install the holy seat of Tin Hau Maiden at the head of the dragon to symbolize the blessing of Tin Hau Maiden for all the competitors, and to let all the teams come to pay their respect, and to symbolize that Tin Hau Maiden is coming down to watch the race. Therefore, no one is allowed to touch this special dragon boat. Otherwise it is considered blasphemy. View original post>>
