What are your ideas on how to sail a mini project for my science class!? Here are a few things to remember?
* The project is the development of a boat from any material (s). The boat should be 12 cm (+ / - 0.5 cm) long and 6 cm (+ / - 0.5 cm) wide at widest point
* Can use plastic straws, wooden splints, aluminum, coated paper, etc.
* Final grade will be determined by the success of the boat's capacity and speed categories and completion of paper.
kits model boats are not allowed.
* Two competitions will include boats. The winner of the cargo (buoyancy) of the competition will be determined by what the boat will support more mass (in cents), without water (which runs down the sides) or touch the bottom the other boats in the competition implies blowing with a fan and using glass stirring rod to keep it in the right direction.
* There will be 10 cents to board during navigation
Thank you

get a bar of soap brand Ivoire (it floats)
reduce specifications
obtain two Popsicle sticks. add one to the other with super glue, the only two inches shorter, install it in the middle of the soap, making a sail in the cardboard and put a curve in it and install it from top bottom of the Popsicle sticks
