Step 1: Materials
You
will need 2 plastic water bottles, cardboard, chopsticks, 2 cardboard
tubes(from toilet paper), tape, scissors, and a marker.
Step 2: Flotation device
It
is important that the bottles you chosen have caps and no holes. First
tape your water bottles together so that the caps are facing the same
way. Tape all the way around the bottles so the tape overlaps.
Step 3: Cut List
Base:
Cut out a rectangle of cardboard that is 5" wide and 9" in length. Draw
a line down the center of the base piece for future reference.
Sides: Cut out two rectangles of cardboard that is 6.5" in length and 1” wide.
Back: Cut out one rectangle of cardboard that is 5" in length and 1” wide.
Bow: Cut out two pieces of cardboard with two sides being 3.5". Ones side being 1" and the other being 2".(refer to diagram)
Sides: Cut out two rectangles of cardboard that is 6.5" in length and 1” wide.
Back: Cut out one rectangle of cardboard that is 5" in length and 1” wide.
Bow: Cut out two pieces of cardboard with two sides being 3.5". Ones side being 1" and the other being 2".(refer to diagram)
Step 5: Making the sails pt.II
Find the center of a cardboard tube and cut a hole twords the top and bottom. Repeat the process for the other half.
Step 6: Tape it down
Secure the 2 side pieces and back to the corresponding sides of the base by taping it down to the top and bottom.
Step 7: Putting up the sides
Once both sides of the cardboard have been taped down,push them up at a 90 degree angle.
Step 8: Crafting the bow
Place
the 2 front pieces together so that they meet at an angle with the
taller sides in front. Be sure the point is formed in the center of the
base. Once they are positioned correctly, tape them to the base.
Step 9: Tape it down again
Now that they are taped on the boat, tape all of the side pieces together by pressing the corners together with tape.
