 Trying to prove his point, Scrooge randomly picked somebody from the crowd watching their argument but lost confidence when the somebody happened to be Donald Duck.To increase his chances of victory, Scrooge saw to it that all other boats in the race (there were a hundred boats counting Donald's and John's) were powered by his gasoline.Near the end, several boats (Donald's included) crashed and a loose motor pushed a freely floating Donald into the finish line in the first place.
