Land boats

We are designing a land boat for the purpose of racing other students and to help us learn more about boats,  technology and ships. To make this land boat you will need smooth wood so the boat won’t be bumpy when you stand on it. You will also need man made material so that the boat is really strong and thick wheels so it will grip to the concrete and it is strong enough to hold the wood.

A physical attribute explains what you will be using for whatever you’re making and a functional attribute describes how one of the things in your land boat works.

The other things you will need are nails to hammer things on, a helmet for safety and last but not least a steering wheel so that we don’t crash into the other land boats and buildings.


We are probably going to be racing on concrete. If the concrete is a little bit wet and we are using cardboard we would have to figure something out to cover the cardboard with. If we are using foam wheels the wheels would break because they will get soggy and wet.
