Driftwood Derby is a quest for level 70 in The Forbidden Reach. It rewards 3 reputation rewards, 9,500 experience and money.
One of the challenges of any new village is finding enough raw building materials. Fortunately, the ocean often brings us exactly what we need.
Take my boat and sail around the island. Along the way, you can collect driftwood in nets. But be wary. You may attract some unwanted attention!

You must board [npc=201122] at the dock to do the quest. You have no control over the boat. Use the vehicle action buttons to throw the net at driftwood piles and generate a protective bubble when under attack.
After completing Driftwood Derby, a loading screen appears and you are returned to [npc=200558]. I have since been unable to mount up, receiving the "Ground mounts are not allowed here" error message.
I assume something has gone wrong when the game has removed me from the boat./reload did not cure the bug, I had to logout and log back in again.
It is bugged, the nets have no effect on the driftwood. Impossible to complete.
