An Oregon man who entered Guinness World Records for paddling the longest journey in a boat made out of giant pumpkin in 2024, has already broken his own record — or should we say, squashed his own record.

Gary Kristensen from Happy Valley, Oregon, set sail in a gigantic carved-out pumpkin to paddle his way down the Columbia River for 45.67 miles in October 2024.

In May of this year, Kristensen returned to the river in a new pumpkin vessel he christened the Marchflower. Kristensen paddled for a whopping 58.57 miles to break his original record by 12.9 miles, according to Guinness World Records.
