I had a bunch of part cans of spray paint around in the basement and I got rid of three of them painting this boat…
For the base coat, I emptied a little can of red spray paint.
Once that dried, I put a couple coats of yellow on one side and a few coats of blue on the other and here it is. (Guaranteed the fastest boat in any bathtub!)
The high powered engine is the rubber band off a bunch of asparagus. (Even boat builders need to eat their veggies.)
Thanks for sticking with me through this project. If you have a specific project you would like me to make or if you have any questions or would like plans of this boat to print, send me an email at jim [at] makestuffwithyourkid [dot] com. I can also get you more information on the more complex boat pattern from the first post.
