Crew members must wear life jackets (available at MDC).
Crew members must be able to carry the boat to the water edge.
Kayak paddles are available at MDC.
TIPS & TRICKS
Use large pieces of cardboard. Unnecessary folding and taping will weaken your boat.
A 1'x1'x1' boat will float 70 lbs. Plan accordingly!
Longer boats go faster but are harder to turn.
Boats shorter than 6' are difficult to steer straight.
Flat bottoms are less likely to tip than v-shaped bottoms.
Sitting in the boat lowers your center of gravity so you are less likely to tip than kneeling or standing.
