After an extraordinary carving, a massive pumpkin was floated along the River Ouse today.

A canoe made from a huge pumpkin weighed 1,364 pounds, which Tom Pearcy used to row across the lake.

Astonished onlookers on the banks watched as the 48-year-old York Maze owner swung 500 meters in the peculiar display.

Each year, he and his friends hold a contest to see who can carve the largest pumpkin, and he promised to do something entertaining with the winning entry.

The idea to carve out the winning pumpkin and paddle it down the River Ouse came to me because I enjoy canoeing.

Rowing the largest pumpkin boat in the world along the river is Tom Pearcy of York Maze.

Between Ouse Bridge and Skeldergate Bridge, Tom Pearcy is rowing the “HMS York Maze” pumpkin down the river Ouse.

As onlookers watched, Mr. Pearcy divulged the fact that he “almost fell off” his pumpkin more than once throughout the 500-meter paddle along the river.

Due to the Maze’s annual endeavor to do something remarkable with their enormous crops, the enormous pumpkin was transformed into a boat.

Yesterdаy, we wаnted tо test the pumpkin’s buоyаncy, sо we plаced it in а lаrge wаtering trоugh.

After that, we used a chainsaw to cut off the top and hollowed out the interior to make room for me.

I made it 500 meters despite my anxiety and the fact that it wasn’t the steadiest ride.

The 1,364-pound boat had to be hoisted by a crane before it could be shaped into a seat for Mr. Pearcy.

The massive pumpkin was almost as heavy as the largest ever produced, a 1,502-pounder from Rhode Island.

As the world record attempt unfolded, large crowds gathered beside the River Ouse to witness it. The 500-meter journey was a hardship for Mr. Pearcy of York.

I was on the verge of falling off multiple times, but luckily, a rescue boat was nearby.

This is my first canoe trip, though I have been on several.

The promoters are certain that the claim will be acknowledged as the “world’s largest pumpkin boat” because they have already contacted Guinness World Records.

“We’re the world record holders because there is no current record for the biggest pumpkin floated down a river,” Tom continued.

“Guinness World Records appears to be going to accept our claim,” we said after contacting them.

The Maze always attempts to outdo itself with their growth.
