8P6 Boat Project

Day 1

I did some research on what type of boat is good for holding weight. I also looked at the scientific side such as the laws of buoyancy.

I made a prototype it did alright it held 34 pennies. Later on I improved and it held 57 pennies.

Today I did some more research on how to get my boat to hold more weight and I discovered a canoe design is quite sufficient according to the web.

I drew out a design on a white board and started to put the foil together.

I finished my design and it held 90 pennies.
