Aquatica

It is an easy boat which works on the principle of the elastic potential energy. It is made of ice-cream sticks, thus very light in the weight. There were 2 problems faced while making this boat.

  1. Since the surface of the boat was flat, the front part of the boat was touching the water surface and was creating drag on the boar. I solved it by adding a Styrofoam piece in the front.
  2. Since the boat is made of ice-cream stick, it was not water proof and the water was seeping inside. I solved it by covering the bottom using cling wrap. It worked similar to the waterproofing done at the bottom to make the boat water resistent
