Maine lobstermen have been racing their boats competitively for more than 100 years. You can bet they've never seen a craft -- half boat, half car -- like the one Steve Johnson has been racing at this year's speed contests. A 1994 convertible Pontiac Sunbird fastened to the top of Johnson's boat turns heads as he zips along at 50 mph, sitting in a bucket seat and operating controls mounted inside the car. He calls it a "ca'-boat." (AP Photo/Pat Wellenbach)
